Speaker 1: Hello, my name is Ryan and this is a demonstration video. As you can see, there are multiple languages being translated at the same time. It is receiving the audio from my voice and then using IBM Watson to do the speech-to-text. Once the text transcript is received, we are using another IBM Watson API to translate it into multiple languages. The cat is running around. The red pen is on the table. The apple and the orange taste very nice. There are five people in the room. So how do we do this? Most of the foundation of this you can get to on your own by going to these how-to videos and I'll put the links here. But there is an eight-part series that Taj did that walks you through using the IBM Watson Unity SDK. There are some great examples and then starting at example number five here, setting the scene for the language translator and instantiating it, making the call. If you do steps five through eight, you will create a foundation for a single language in Spanish, which is the jumping off point for the video that you just saw. And I'll post the code for that as well. They're very good videos. Don't do what I did and try to skip any steps because there are some critical path items here that you will end up troubleshooting. So go through meticulously, follow from step five and go from there. The language models that are available are here in the IBM Cloud, IBM Watson APIs. There are many IBM Watson APIs that are available in the catalog here. This is one. And within the catalog, you will need to launch two IBM Watson APIs. One is the speech-to-text and the other one is a language translator. And you can see them down here. These are lite-free versions of this. So speech-to-text, you'll want to launch one of these tiles and get the credentials for it. And you'll also want to launch and get the credentials for the language translator here. Once you have the username, password, and URLs, which you can paste into the code, which you'll see in the prior demonstration video, that's all you really need from IBM Cloud. The rest you can do in Unity. The other thing that you'll want to consider is in Taj's instructional videos, he loads the package from GitHub. It's actually much easier than that now. If you just go into the Unity Marketplace and the Asset Store here and type in IBM Watson, you can load the asset package through there. So you can load it either through GitHub or do it the easy way, which is going through the Asset Store and loading the IBM Watson SDK for Unity. So I'm going to shut down the video here. I'm going to step you through adding another language so you can see how it all gets wired in. But thanks for watching, and I hope that you found this useful and interesting.
