Subject: STATS: Translatron I


Translatron I

Model: MaGnA Corp Translatron I
Type: Electronic Translation Device
Cost: 2500 (Linguasofts range from 250 to 1000, depending on complexity)

	The Translatron I is a small headset consisting of earphones and a
microphone, connected to a small (the size of a walkman) unit that's
attached to the user's belt, or carried in his hand. The unit contains a
microcomputer, a disk drive, and a small speaker/microphone, as well as
connections for commlinks and larger speaker systems.

	For it to work, you must buy special datadiscs, called Linguasofts. If you
want the translatron to translate from Wookiee to Basic (and viceversa) you
must buy the correct Linguasoft. Usually Linguasofts are made for
translating from Basic to some other language and viceversa, but if you
look for them (or have an able programmer to do it) you can find rarer
Linguasofts, like Wookiee to Rodian, Jawa to Ithorian, etc. Other
Linguasofts, like special scientific terminology, slangs or dialects are
available.

	The user just talks in (let's say it's a Wookiee/Basic Linguasoft) basic
through the headset's microphone, and seconds later it comes out in Wookiee
from the unit's speaker. When a wookiee talks to the user, the unit's
microphone picks it up, and seconds later the user hears it in Basic
through the headset's earphones.
