X-Translator: A Real-Time Multilingual Speaker-Aware Speech-to-Speech Translation System

X-Translator is a low‑cost, modular real‑time speech‑to‑speech translation system that integrates streaming ASR, machine translation, and prompt‑conditioned TTS, managed by a session‑level runtime controller. It uses incremental segment commitment to stabilize ASR streams and an online speaker prompt manager to maintain speaker consistency across multi‑speaker conversations. The system is evaluated on translation quality, speech naturalness, latency, and speaker preservation using OpenSTBench, and its code and demo are publicly available on GitHub.
