    With Google Translate, we can translate any language to any language. Apertium only allows the translation of specific languages to other specific ones. Eg.: Portuguese to only Catalan, Spanish and Galician, but not English, French or German like Google Translate does.

    It's BETTER than Google translate. It stabilizes the live translated camera feed while continuously adding new parts you point the camera at.
