Google announced their newest prototype Android smartphone with a feature that can make real-time, 3-D maps of its environments. The customized hardware and software of the smartphone is composed of sensors that enables the gadget to make over 250,000 measurements every second. With this capability, it can be use as indoor mapping device and a navigation assistance tool for the visually-impaired. The phone can capture the dimension of spaces or rooms by moving it around.
Google said that “We are physical beings that live in a 3-D world. Yet, our mobile devices assume that physical world ends at the boundaries of the screen.”
The prototype of the smartphone is developed by Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects unit under a venture called Project Tango.
The device is a 5 inches Android phone with a 4-megapixel camera. It also has an additional motion-tracking camera, a 3rd depth-sensing camera, and includes a pair of processors optimized for computer vision calculations.
