Hello friends,

Recently I am facing a serious issue that I can’t able to translate Japanese from images 😔. Can anyone suggest any idea about this?

Can you clarify this a bit further? Is this a web app you have built?

You could use the Google cloud api to recognise the text in the image:

> **[Detect text in images  |  Cloud Vision API  |  Google Cloud](https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/ocr)**

You could read the text from the image, translate it and then speak it out using the following API’s:

1. Google Cloud Vision
2. Google Cloud Translate
3. Goofle Cloud Text To Speech  
Google documentation explaining how to do it:
