Conventional traveling support devices tend to work in isolation—providing translation, maps or suggestions, but seldom combine these capabilities into a single, smart experience. Globe Lens is a proposed AI-based multimodal travel assistance system that will be a robust global traveller digital assistant. The system uses large language models (LLMs), computer vision, speech recognition, and real-time geospatial information to offer context-sensitive, on-command assistance in various modalities such as text, voice and image inputs. Its core functions are real-time visual translation of signs and menus using the camera, voice-activated conversation in 100-plus languages, AI-powered itinerary planning based upon the tastes and preferences of the user and the real-time environment, cultural etiquette advice, emergency response navigation, and currency and unit conversion. Globe Lens will use a modular microservices model implemented on cloud infrastructure that allows scaling and provides offline backup services in low-connectivity areas. Early system tests reveal that there is high accuracy in object-based translating exercises and high ratings of user satisfaction in simulated travel situations. The study includes the system design, methodology, literature context, and discussion of results and future research directions. </em></p> Karanam Rohitha Amrutha Varshini Kamisetti Pragna Sri Sai Lakshmi Shaik Haneefa Darapu Uma Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Intelligent Decision Technologies and Applications (e-ISSN: 3049-0219) 2026-05-30 2026-05-30 3 2 1 14
