iFLYTEK Upgrades Simultaneous Interpretation Model and Launches iFLYTRANS Headsets in Shanghai and Dubai

On October 14, iFLYTEK hosted the "Talk to the World, Connect Without Boundaries" event at the Grand Halls, unveiling its third-generation AI simultaneous interpretation technology alongside the new iFLYTRANS Headsets. The launch, held in sync with the GITEX Global tech exhibition in Dubai, showcased iFLYTEK's latest breakthroughs in AI translation to a worldwide audience. The event also featured comprehensive upgrades to the iFLYTEK Dual-Screen Translator 2.0, with enhanced features and expanded application scenarios.

Major Upgrades in End-to-End Technology

This upgrade reinforces iFLYTEK's leading position in Chinese–English simultaneous interpretation. The new generation significantly enhances the perceived quality of translations, effectively eliminating the "choppiness" and "mechanical tone" typical of conventional machine translation. With a first-word response time of just two seconds, it delivers a truly real-time, synchronized experience. Its specialized capabilities are equally impressive: by expanding the professional terminology database to over 100,000 entries, the upgraded system now effectively handles translation tasks in highly specialized fields such as healthcare, finance, and law. In addition, speech playback sounds more natural and human-like than ever. On a strategic level, iFLYTEK has also introduced new interpretation capabilities between Chinese/English and Arabic/Spanish.

IDC’s Latest Report: iFLYTEK Leads China’s AI Translation

iFLYTEK also presented the newly released IDC report titled "China AI Translation Technology Assessment, 2025." The report ranks iFLYTEK first in eight core dimensions—including translation speed, quality, specialization, naturalness, product maturity, commercial scale, R&D investment, and user recommendation—with perfect scores in six of them. This result solidifies iFLYTEK's position as a comprehensive leader in both AI translation technology and industrial application.

iFLYTRANS Headsets: More Than Translation—Your Multilingual AI Companion

Driven by continuous breakthroughs in iFLYTEK’s end-to-end real-time voice interpretation model, the iFLYTRANS Headsets deliver significant improvements in translation accuracy, response speed, and speech naturalness. This enables cross-language communication that feels more authentic and closely mirrors a face-to-face conversation. Capable of real-time interpretation across 60 languages and equipped with a professional lexicon of over 100,000 terms, the earbuds easily handle complex scenarios in high-stakes fields such as healthcare, finance, law, and manufacturing. A dedicated SI service cluster reduces first-sentence latency for Chinese-English translation to just two seconds, while Bluetooth 6.0 ensures a stable, low-latency connection—together creating a truly seamless, real-time synchronized experience.

Live cross-continental dialogue demonstrates technical strength. At the launch event, the new iFLYTRANS Headsets established a real-time, low-latency cross-language dialogue with the GITEX Global exhibition in Dubai, drawing astonishment from the audience. This live demonstration vividly showcased the remarkable stability of iFLYTEK's technology under complex network conditions and the powerful computational capabilities of its end-to-end simultaneous interpretation large model.

As the industry's first open-ear translation headsets to feature a multi-modal AI noise reduction system that combines both bone conduction and air conduction, the device utilizes a multi-microphone array with a 30-degree pickup angle. It also employs directional audio projection and anti-phase sound cancellation to effectively protect conversation privacy. iFLYTRANS Headsets seamlessly adapt to four core scenarios: Real-time Call Translation enables cross-continental communication while supporting multitasking. Face-to-Face Translation facilitates seamless, button-free conversation between two people, with offline support for 18 language pairs. Online Simultaneous Interpretation delivers bilingual translation alongside recording and playback features for review. Listen-in Interpretation, utilizing 5-8 meter directional pickup, is ideally suited for conference settings.

Beyond breaking language barriers, the new iFLYTRANS Headsets serve as a versatile AI partner. Simply activate the "Xiaofei" assistant by voice to access diverse functions—from speaking practice and information queries to generating personalized voice podcasts. Engineered for all-day comfort, the earbuds feature dynamic sound tuning and an ergonomic design with titanium-wire supports and optimized weight distribution, ensuring both stability and a universal fit. With up to 12 hours of battery per charge and 42 hours total with the case, they reliably support extended use. By combining these comprehensive advantages, iFLYTRANS Headsets redefine cross-language communication and establish themselves as the go-to choice for global users.

iFLYTEK Dual-Screen Translator 2.0: Continuous Evolution

The upgraded iFLYTEK Dual-Screen Translator 2.0 delivers a complete translation workflow—integrating translation, transcription, and content sharing into a single, efficient solution. It has become an indispensable tool for international meetings and business negotiations, effortlessly addressing even highly specialized communication needs.

Meeting Translation with Speaker Separation: In Chinese-English meeting mode, the system intelligently distinguishes between different speakers and allows custom name assignment for each participant. This eliminates the "who-said-what" confusion in multilingual meetings, ensuring smoother pacing and more natural communication flow.

Intelligent Minutes Generation and Sharing: Both the Meeting Translation and Listen-in Interpretation features now support automated minutes generation in Chinese. By leveraging the Spark Office large model, the system intelligently summarizes meeting content from recognized or translated transcripts. Users can also easily share both the translated content and meeting minutes. The full upgrade of the iFLYTEK Dual-Screen Translator 2.0 is scheduled for release by the end of October.
