What Is the Morse Code Light Translator?
While Morse code is traditionally received through a series of long and short beep sounds, Morse code light uses flashing light instead.
Morse code light translator allows you to see short and long flashes of light signals (white background) on the screen (which is black by default) that correspond to the dots and dashes of Morse code.
How to Use the Morse Code Light Translator
- Enter your letter, number, word, or message into the "Text" box.
- After the Morse code translator translates the text into the "Morse Code" field, click on the "Start" button.
- Configure optional settings:
- Check "Loop flashing the Morse code light" to repeat the sequence
- Check "Play the Morse code sound" to enable audio
- Light will flash according to the Morse code patterns of your text. If sound is enabled, you'll hear the corresponding audio.
- During playback, you can click "Fullscreen" to enter fullscreen mode.
- Click "Stop" to end the sequence.
What Are the Reasons to Use the Morse Code Light Translator?
Firstly, some people want to simply visualize Morse code via light as opposed to hearing it or reading a series of dashes and dots. It's fun to see how different words and phrases look when translated into Morse code light.
Next, if someone has hearing difficulties or doesn't have any speakers or can't turn them on, this translator lets them translate Morse code alphabet into visual signals. Morse code light also has real-world implications and is valuable to know in many cases.
For example, if someone is trapped somewhere and only has a flashlight, they can technically communicate to others via Morse code light. Similarly, this type of Morse code communication allows people to communicate messages without making any noise, which is often valuable in military operations.
