Google may soon let users translate text within images in Chrome

The information came from the Chrome feature researcher Leopeva64, reports Android Police. The new image translation tool is not released yet, not even in Chrome Beta or Canary, as it is still under development. Currently, Chrome allows the translation of entire web pages by just right-clicking on the desktop or tapping the menu button on mobile, then selecting the "Translate" option.
