Let us see what google lens and google home is all about,<\/h2>\n

G<\/span>oo<\/span><\/span>g<\/span>l<\/span>e\u00a0<\/span>Lens<\/h2>\n

At Google\u2019s I\/O developer conference, CEO Sundar\u00a0Pichai announced a new technology called Google Lens. The idea with the product is to leverage Google\u2019s computer vision and AI technology in order to bring smarts directly to your phone\u2019s camera.\u00a0As the company explains, the smartphone camera won\u2019t just see what you see, but will also understand what you see to help you take action.<\/p>\n

During the session, a demo was given in which google lens was pointed at something through your mobile phones camera and lens will explain you what it is\u00a0\u2014 like, it could identify the flower you\u2019re preparing to shoot.<\/p>\n

\"demo<\/a><\/p>\n

Another demo was given where lens showed expertise at handling common task – connecting to your wi-fi by scanning the photo of the sticker which was placed on the router.<\/p>\n

\"google<\/a><\/p>\n

In that case, Google Lens could identify that it\u2019s looking at a network\u2019s name and password, then offer you the option to tap a button and connect automatically.<\/p>\n

Third demo was given considering business storefront’s\u00a0\u2014 and Google Lens could pull up the name, rating and other business listing information in a card that appeared over the photo.<\/p>\n

\"google<\/a><\/p>\n

The\u00a0technology basically turns the camera from a passive tool that\u2019s capturing the world around you to one that\u2019s allowing you to interact with what\u2019s in your camera\u2019s viewfinder.<\/p>\n

Later, during a Google Home demonstration, the company showed how Lens would be integrated into Google Assistant. Through a new button in the Assistant app, users will be able to launch Lens and insert a photo into the conversation with the Assistant, where it can process the data the photo contains.<\/div>\n

To show how this could work, Google\u2019s Scott Huffman\u00a0holds his camera up to a concert marquee for a Stone Foxes show and Google Assistant pulls up info on ticket sales. \u201cAdd this to my calendar,\u201d he says \u2014 and it does.<\/p>\n

When lens is integrated into google assistant, it can also help in translations.<\/p>\n

Huffman\u00a0demonstrated this by holding up his camera to a sign in Japanese, tapping the Lens icon and saying \u201cWhat does this say?\u201d Google Assistant then translates the text.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In addition, Pichai\u00a0showed how Google\u2019s algorithms could more generally clean up and enhance photos \u2014 like when you\u2019re taking a picture of your child\u2019s baseball game through a chain-link fence, Google could remove the fence from the photo automatically. Or if you took a photo in a low-light condition, Google could automatically enhance the photo to make it less pixelated and blurry.<\/p>\n

The company didn’t gave any specific date on when these products are ready for a user, but they said they are “arriving soon”. So we can wait until they are live to be used and make our life’s more easier than ever.<\/p>\n

G<\/span>oo<\/span><\/span>g<\/span>l<\/span>e<\/span> Home<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Google Home and Amazon Echo are pretty useful devices to have in the kitchen, where clean hands are often at a premium. Until now, though, when you asked Google Home for\u00a0a recipe, it would happily tell you all about it \u2014 but unless you are the president of the U.S. and have the world\u2019s greatest memory, you probably forgot more than half of the ingredients by the time it was\u00a0done. Starting a month back, Google Home doesn\u2019t only have access to five million new recipes, but it also allows you\u00a0to easily step through them and ask questions about them.<\/p>\n

That ability to tell your Google Home to start cooking, repeat steps and move on to the next step is pretty useful in and of itself. To power this, Google has indexed recipes from Bon Appetite, The New York Times, Food Network and others.<\/p>\n

\"google<\/a><\/p>\n

With this update, though, Google is also making it easier to find recipes to begin with.\u00a0As the Google team probably realized, a device without a screen isn\u2019t the best place to start a search for recipes, so instead of fully relying on the Home, you can now\u00a0use the Google Assistant on your phone or the Google Search app for iOS and Android to find a recipe and then easily send it to the Google Home with the click of a button.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that you will also be able to ask the Home questions about your recipe (\u201cHow much\u00a0lard do I need?\u201d) and that it will correct you if, for example, you mistake your baking soda for baking powder in those questions. And while you\u2019re doing all of that, you can still play music and set timers on the Home, too.<\/p>\n

Google Home is more than just making recipee’s and asking for steps to follow while cooking, you can make calls or can search for a specific query while reading a magazine or playing a game. The only thing that google home lacks is a screen and google didn’t put the screen for a reason.<\/p>\n

Certainly technology is evolving and you need to adapt it to stay in the race, Google is changing the way we look our lives and launching new technologies every now and then to make our lives more simpler and easier. It’s both amazing and scary because humans are now becoming more tech savvy and dependent.<\/p>\n
