FIELD Co., Ltd. announced its vision to realize a world without communication barriers through the development and popularization of 'okitalk', a stationary AI translator and written communication device.

We support April Dream, an initiative that makes April 1st a day to broadcast dreams. This press release is the dream of the 'Stationary AI Translator & Written Communication Device okitalk'.

FIELD Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shikokuchuo City, Ehime Prefecture https://www.okitalk.jp ) is working on the development and popularization of the stationary AI translator and written communication device 'okitalk' to solve various communication challenges, such as language differences and voice/hearing impairments, and to realize a society where people do not struggle with conversation and communication.

When I traveled abroad, I didn't understand the local language and experienced difficulties in various situations like restaurants, hotels, stations, and taxis. Not being able to convey what I want to say. Not understanding what the other person is saying. Not knowing if my message was properly understood. Just because of the language barrier, I felt anxious, troubled, and sometimes even gave up.

That's when I realized. Foreign visitors coming to Japan must be feeling the exact same way. That is where we started the development of our translation device.
