The Vision for Language from the Dust

 

The end state will be to point your phone / camera at an ancient artifact and receive a translation.  This system is to work for Egyptian Hieroglyphs and Phoenician.  Others will come later.

How will this be accomplished?

By making use of multiple layers of technology we will do the following:

  1. Build out database driven dictionaries.
  2. Exend OCR scanning already available from Google to process Egyptian and Phoenician symbols including variants.
  3. Process meaning through application logic enhanced with Artificial Intelligence.
  4. Create proper English with application logic enhanced with Artificial Intelligence.

The project will need many people to succeed.  I am looking for the right volunteers to make this happen.

As this is currently in startup mode, I am building the infrastructure and investigating the tools that will be needed.

Stay tuned!!!
