| Police Communications |
| This is an extensive phrasebook organized by situation. So, for example, when detaining a suspect, you go to that section and you'll find pre-translated phrases developed specifically for it. You can speak into the device to say the phrase you want, and the device will speak it back out. Or you can just tap the phrase with your fingertip. The suspect will hear the voice of a professional narrator speaking in the suspect's own language.
These are logically arranged into these main categories:
- Detention.
- Search.
- Identification.
- Investigation.
- Patrol.
- Communication control.
Each of these main categories has its own subcategories. For example, tap on Detention and you get:
- Miranda.
- Movements.
- Hands Control.
- Weapon and Package.
- Warnings.
- Vehicle.
A small sampling of the law enforcement-specific phrases:
Weapons:
- Do you have firearms?
- Do you have any weapons?
Hands control
- Hand out of your pockets.
- Show me what is in your hands.
- Hands behind your head.
- Hands on the wall.
Packages:
- Is this your bag?
- Leave your bag here.
- Open your bag.
- Put the package down slowly.
- We have to search you.
Vehicle:
- Get out of the vehicle.
- May I search your vehicle?
- Show me your vehicle registration.
Warnings:
- Do everything very slowly.
- Do not do anything until I tell you to.
- Do not resist.
- Do not move, or the dog will bite you.
Identification:
- What is your name?
- Do you speak English?
- Do you understand English?
- What place do you come from?
- Do you have any form of identification?
|
| Police Commands |
| This section allows you to create profiles for multiple people. Each person can then add their own translations that are trained to their voice. Speaking a short command (a "voice tag") pulls up the translation in that person's voice. For example:
- John says, "Introduce me" into the unit.
- The unit says (in the other language), "Hello. My name is Officer Holt. I need to ask you some questions. I don't speak Spanish, but this machine will help us talk. Did you understand what I just said?"
- A simple nod is all John needs in reply.
- Next, he speaks a series of other initiation words or phrases and the PD-5 speaks to the suspect each time.
You can adapt this to your organization's specific procedures.
The PD-5 understands thousands of law enforcement phrases spoken in English. It can pronounce the translations back to those who don't speak English. This hands-free/ eyes-free operational unit produces 100% understandable translations spoken by professional native-speakers. Now you have the assistance you need to make the right decision and control potentially dangerous situations.

Speech
| The technology to provide "speech to speech translation" is unlikely to exist in your lifetime. Thus, nobody actually sells a translator that does such a thing. Men take the Russian version of what is available to Ukraine and come back with brides. So, we know existing technology works just fine for two people to really communicate.

Other Methods
|
Pocket translators aren't the only way to communicate with foreign language speakers. Here are some other methods, compared.
Smart phone apps. Sometimes, customers ask why they should buy a pocket translator instead of a smart phone app. It's a good question, because smart phones like the Android are awesome products. But then, so are pocket translators.
- The iTravl and 900-series pocket translators have four translation tools, and most other models have at least two. The app is only one tool, and while it is helpful it's a debutante rather than a specialist.
- A smart phone can hold a translation app. Pocket translators are translation devices that also hold other apps.
- Pocket translators work, whether you have a signal or not.
- Pocket translators don't report back your location, and don't have a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM card).
- You won't be barred from bringing a pocket translator into a secure location, because it doesn't have a camera.
Laptops. Yes, a laptop will run circles around a pocket translator if, for example, you want to crunch a big spreadsheet. But pocket translators have some advantages:
- A mobile device is always on. You don't need to wait for it to boot up, as you do with your laptop.
- A pocket translator fits in your pocket. Try getting your laptop to do that.
- A pocket translator weighs quite a bit less than a laptop does.
- With the pocket translator, you get the full functionality of translator programs, vs something pared down for laptop use.
- The form factor of the pocket translator is geared toward translation, and that's not true of a laptop.
Human interpretors. If you thought getting a laptop into your pocket was tough, try that with a 150 lb person! A pocket translator has some other advantages:
- You don't need to schedule a pocket translator to meet you somewhere.
- You don't need to pay a pocket translator by the hour or buy it meals.
- A pocket translator is a machine that provides exact translation. A human interpreter, well, interprets. So it's sometimes someone's opinion of what you meant to say instead of what you said.
- Human translators have varying degrees of competency. Sometimes, they guess.
