In order to help people learn new languages, Snapchat has added ‘learn language’ lenses for languages. Starting with English, the company is now expanding it for more languages. Basically, for this feature to work properly, lenses combine machine learning and augmented reality to recognize 1000 objects. After recognizing the objects, lenses translate them to their name in the different chosen languages. All this process takes place in real-time without any delay. The company had introduced  Hindi, Urdu  Kannada, and Marathi language learning lenses last year and has now added Bengali and Punjabi.

The idea behind these lenses was to make learning Indian languages fun and easy – especially for new learners. Augmented reality can be really entertaining and can make learning more interactive and accessible.” Also, Snapchat has introduced…
