Google adds 3D and Augmented Reality to your mobile searches with the camera

Google has presented novelties in its search function, among which the possibility of using Augmented Reality and 3D stand out. They have shown how a 3D model of a skeleton is placed in an Augmented Reality space.

Google has kicked off its Google I / O with a search camera integration, with a plethora of integrations. On the one hand, they have started with Augmented Reality and 3D, which are added to the search functions on mobile. For example, you can search for information on the human skeleton and you can put a 3D model in a real space, being able to explore it in a more natural way.

Another very striking function has to do with restaurants. We can take a photo of the menu and Google will tell us the most striking and popular dishes on the menu, we will even be shown photos of the dishes to make a better decision. This will be very useful for those who are facing new sites and want help. In addition, you can scan the ticket and calculate the tip (necessary in the United States) and be able to divide the account.

Google search and camera improvements

Finally, they showed notable improvements in the camera of Google Go, the version for accessible mobiles from Google. They have improved the functions and incorporate a translator in an application of less than 100KB, something that can be very useful. As an example, they have put immigrants and people who cannot read using the application to read things like ingredients, information on signs and a bank teller.

You can translate foreign languages ​​or read your own, something that will go a long way on cheap mobiles in countries with low literacy rates or in immigrant communities. These are novelties that will help them to enter strongly into developing countries.
