ELSA: Enabling Language Service Anywhere.

Made by Chaska-based RTT Mobile, the device enables a three-way phone call. It uses a cell phone signal and in about one minute connects users with an interpreter through Language Line Solutions, a translation company based in Monterey, Calif.

The service, available only in the United States, provides translators for 180 languages.
