System and method for road sign translation and display

A vehicle system is configured for translating and displaying signs. The vehicle system includes at least one computer configured to access to a database of model signs, where the database is stored local to the at least one computer and includes translations associated with the model signs. The system also includes a camera configured to generate image data, and transmit the image data to the at least one computer, where the at least one computer determines whether the image data indicates a detected sign, and whether the detected sign matches one of the model signs in the database. The system also includes a display operatively connected with the at least one computer for displaying a translation associated with a matching model sign in the database when the at least one computer determines that the image data indicates a detected sign that matches one of the model signs.
