PUTTING YOU IN OTHER WORDS

REMOTE SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING ( RSI )

The world of interpreting has experienced a transformation since the Covid pandemic, enabling an already existing variant, Remote Simultaneous Interpreting or RSI, to become the prevalent mode of interpreting via Internet when in-person meetings aren’t feasible or desirable.

What is Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI)?

Fully Virtual of Hybrid Interpreting (RSI/HSI) is now considered Next Gen. Interpreting; presential or in-person interpreting is not going to disappear, however; what the interpreting world is experiencing is the integration of classic modes with the fully virtual mode resulting in hybrid interpreting, whereby some of the participants are present while others connect remotely to follow the proceedings. Likewise for interpreters, some may be present at the venue while others may connect and deliver remotely.

For interpreters, it is also a similar transformation; sometimes is not cost-effective to deploy an entire team, maybe their virtual presence is enough to achieve good quality interpreting without incurring additional costs.

How it Works?

Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI) involves translating spoken language into another in real-time from a remote location. This is usually facilitated via a cloud-based platform, which eliminates delays, the need for physical equipment, and other obstacles.

Speak

A presenter delivers their speech in one language, and their voice and video are transmitted live to a remote interpreter, usually through a web browser on a laptop or desktop computer.

Interpret

The interpreter listens to and watches the speaker on their device, and with the help of a high-quality headset and microphone, they translate the speech into another language instantly and in real-time.

Transmit

The interpreter's translation is sent to a cloud-based Remote Simultaneous Interpretation platform, which then delivers it to the audience.

Hear

Attendees and delegates can join the RSI platform or a third-party web conferencing platform using a computer or mobile device, allowing them to see and hear the speaker in their preferred language. Additionally, interpretation can be accessed through traditional infrared (IR) headsets if necessary.
