Real-time AI translation is being implemented by OsnabrückHalle for the very first time in its operations.
At the recent DSAG personnel days held in OsnabrückHalle, a significant development in the field of AI technology was showcased. The event, which attracted over 900 participants, witnessed the successful implementation of real-time AI translation technology, making presentations and discussions more accessible for a diverse audience.
The AI technology, which was instrumental in the event's success, was a collaboration between WhisperAI and cloud-based Google Translate. Dr. Andreas Narmann, a DSAG working group speaker for personnel, co-initiated a lecture with AI support, marking an important step in the use of AI for real-time presentations.
The technology, developed and implemented by the team at OsnabrückHalle, was used in a specialist lecture, live-equipped with German subtitles. The AI technology offered numerous advantages, including fast and accurate translations, which significantly improved accessibility during the lecture.
Shawn Hellmann, AI & Event Technology Specialist at OsnabrückHalle, explained that precise setting of parameters is necessary for the technology to work effectively. Factors like sentence endings, translation or correction parts, speaking speeds, and dynamic adjustments affect the accuracy of translations.
Jan Jansen, Managing Director of OsnabrückHalle, announced plans to continue building on the expertise gained from using AI technologies in events. The successful implementation of AI-based real-time translation technology at the DSAG conference demonstrates its enormous potential.
From an event organization perspective, this technology can streamline multilingual support without the need for numerous human interpreters, lowering costs and logistical complexity. It allows organizers to reach a broader, more diverse audience and enhances the overall attendee experience by providing seamless, instant translation. Additionally, it can facilitate networking and collaboration among international participants, making events more dynamic and globally connected.
The use of AI for real-time translations in events can expand the pool of potential speakers, as organizers can now focus on interesting topics, regardless of the lecture language. This reduces language barriers and fosters more inclusive communication during events, ultimately making them more successful and enjoyable for all participants.
Artificial-intelligence technologies, such as the collaboration between WhisperAI and cloud-based Google Translate, played a crucial role in providing real-time AI translations during the DSAG conference at OsnabrückHalle. precision in setting parameters is essential for ensuring accurate translations using these technologies.
