Abstract

Claims (44)

1. A method, comprising:

receiving, by a messaging application running on a device of a user, a request to scan an image captured by a device camera;

obtaining, in response to receiving the request, a travel parameter associated with the request, and an attribute of an object depicted in the image;

determining, based on the travel parameter and the attribute, to perform a translation with respect to the object;

performing, in response to the determining, the translation with respect to the object;

displaying an augmented reality content item, which includes the translation, with the image;

receiving, during display of the translation, user input corresponding to a tilt gesture of the device; and

performing, in response to receiving the user input, a second translation with respect to the object.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the travel parameter indicates at least one of a travel schedule, a transportation schedule, a language, a general location, a specific venue or landmark, an activity, a list of participants, or a topic of interest.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the attribute comprises a name of the object, and

wherein the translation is performed with respect to the name of the object.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the attribute comprises machine-encoded text based on text depicted within the image, and

wherein the translation is performed with respect to the machine-encoded text.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining to perform the translation is further based on a geolocation of the device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image corresponds to a live feed of a camera of the device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image corresponds to a saved image included in a photo library.

8. A system, comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, configure the processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving, by a messaging application running on a device of a user, a request to scan an image captured by a device camera;

obtaining, in response to receiving the request, a travel parameter associated with the request, and an attribute of an object depicted in the image;

determining, based on the travel parameter and the attribute, to perform a translation with respect to the object;

performing, in response to the determining, the translation with respect to the object;

displaying an augmented reality content item, which includes the translation, with the image;

receiving, during display of the translation, user input corresponding to a tilt gesture of the device; and

performing, in response to receiving the user input, a second translation with respect to the object.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the travel parameter indicates at least one of a travel schedule, a transportation schedule, a language, a general location, a specific venue or landmark, an activity, a list of participants, or a topic of interest.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the attribute comprises a name of the object, and wherein the translation is performed with respect to the name of the object.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the attribute comprises machine-encoded text based on text depicted within the image, and wherein the translation is performed with respect to the machine-encoded text.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein determining to perform the translation is further based on a geolocation of the device.

13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the image corresponds to a live feed of a camera of the device.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the image corresponds to a saved image included in a photo library.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

receiving, by a messaging application running on a device of a user, a request to scan an image captured by a device camera;

obtaining, in response to receiving the request, a travel parameter associated with the request, and an attribute of an object depicted in the image;

determining, based on the travel parameter and the attribute, to perform a translation with respect to the object;

performing, in response to the determining, the translation with respect to the object;

displaying an augmented reality content item, which includes the translation, with the image;

receiving, during display of the translation, user input corresponding to a tilt gesture of the device; and

performing, in response to receiving the user input, a second translation with respect to the object.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the travel parameter indicates at least one of a travel schedule, a transportation schedule, a language, a general location, a specific venue or landmark, an activity, a list of participants, or a topic of interest.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the attribute comprises a name of the object, and wherein the translation is performed with respect to the name of the object.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the attribute comprises machine-encoded text based on text depicted within the image, and

wherein the translation is performed with respect to the machine-encoded text.
