Google Demonstrates New Google Goggles Translation Feature at Mobile World Congress

We've been able to translate languages with the help of Google Translate for a while now, but this new function within Google Goggles (which I'm already a big fan of) kind of blows my mind. It's still in the experimentation phase, but ideally you can just snap a picture of something you need translated — a street sign, a menu, directional aids — and Google Goggles will send your pic to the server and have a response back to you with translated text in seconds. I don't know about you, but this gets me really pumped to plan another overseas trip! Check out the demo video straight from Barcelona below.
