With the Augmented Reality feature live, Google mobile search now gives users an option to view animals as augmented reality images in their surroundings.[br][br][br] [br][br]Augmented reality (AR) has been one of the biggest talking points for the tech industry over the last few years. From Facebook to Google, the major names in the industry have been talking about ways to bring this virtual beast to our living rooms and beyond, and it appears the latter has finally managed to do so. [br][br]At I/O 2019, tech giant Google announced AR features that included Dining and Translation filters for Google Lens. This also enabled the ability to preview animals via augmented reality in Google Search. The feature has now gone live for users.[br][br]With the feature live, Google mobile search now gives you an option to view animals as augmented reality images in your surroundings. This is part of the company's idea that seeing things with your eyes is the easiest way to process new information.[br][br]While not everything can be searched using Augmented Reality, as of now, Google has added support for 3d searches for lions, tigers, bears, alpine goats, timberwolves, European hedgehogs, angler fish, emperor penguins, and giant pandas. The process for searching for these is simple as Searches in Chrome or the Google app bring up a 3D card on the screen.[br][br][br] [br][br]However, not all devices support the feature currently. As Google explains in a Tweet, the feature is only available on select devices with support for Augmented Reality. [br][br]Also, as we found, for the feature to work users will have to give access to their phone's camera and storage to see animals in AR. The first time we used the service, we also had to give the AR kit some time adjusting to the surroundings. For now, this is one AR feature that has been announced by Google. The company is expected to release more such features that use AR capabilities. As per 9to5Google Google is also working with NASA, Samsung, Volvo and other companies to create more AR objects for Search in the future.[br][br]Source : timesnownews.com
