Google Goggles
Google has a new tool that is going to help people find out information about objects right in front of them.
That's right. "Google Goggle" will use some pretty funky techniques to identify objects and then plug them into web search to help you find out information about them.
Here's a quick blurb from the site:
A picture is worth a thousand words.No need to type your search anymore. Just take a picture.
Find out what businesses are nearby.Just point your phone at a store.
This is just the beginning - it's not quite perfect yet.Works well for some things, but not for all.
Your pictures, your control.Turn on 'visual search history' to view or share your pictures at any time. Turn it off to discard them once the search is done.
