# Babel Fish

An app that shows how to use the Microsoft Translator Speech APIs to build a real-time voice translation app for the Universal Windows Platform, even for Windows 10 IoT Core.

**Getting started**

First of all, you need to register for a *Translator Speech* service on the [Azure Portal](https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.CognitiveServicesSpeechTranslation), in order to obtain the key that is requested by the app. Then, you can either insert the key in the [Constants.cs](https://github.com/marcominerva/BabelFish/blob/master/BabelFish/Common/Constants.cs#L11) file or create a file named *settings.babelfish* and put it in the My Documents folder:

```

{

  "speechSubscriptionKey": "your_key",

  "source":"it",

  "translation":"en",

  "voice":"en-US-Zira",

  "autoConnect": true

}

```

Parameters are self-explanatory. This file is used to automatically configure the app and is useful in particular for Windows 10 IoT Core, as in this case you haven't a UI.
