## Description

crx-selection-translate is a multimodal translation browser extension designed to process text, images, PDFs, and audio-visual content. It provides a translation interface that operates across various digital formats, including a bilingual mode for web pages that displays translated content alongside the original text.

The tool features a multi-engine comparison system that aggregates results from several translation services for selected text. It also includes an optical character recognition utility to extract and translate text from screenshots, clipboards, and image files.

Additional capabilities cover the translation of full web pages and PDF documents via an integrated viewer. The system also processes multimedia through real-time audio translation, converting spoken words from microphones or embedded video streams into translated text.
