A new version is in the plan by the Company by Google, an iPhone version of Google Goggles by the end of the year. This was indicated by an executive of Google. At Stanford University, says David Petrou, the project leader Google Goggles its functions.
The application uses as Petrou says that the ability for the Android mobile application to snatch a photo of the display and send it to Google's cloud services. He illustrates the idea of an image,Can of beer and recognition program can be an Android Boddington. A final page of said image later with some information from the web. He added videocasets the film Breakin ', that recognition is a success for the feature is.
The program has a basic and fundamental structure of glasses is that it is universal. "Query can not be processed in one place over, like a bottle of wine" It has been shown by a book and glasses on a new withPaper on a shopping site and in addition to bringing information search engine on manual transmission that is the subject of the book was bound.
About a third of the time to bring the program to a specific result, Petrou said, because the internal congas, engine, handles calls for the recognition of a correspondence between the image and a database of 150,000 sites of interest to find the points in image. If the most recent photos are compared, the comparison is successful about 50-60%of time. A disadvantage is that the function should operate as a client application that Google needs as well as precise control of the camera as possible (the white balance for example).
Petrou said, upload it to open a pair of glasses back to third, that a stamp collector can use a picture from a label with the information that he describes. An API may also be open as the image in a foreign currency and demand would be automatically transformed into a relativeDollars.
Another project is underway, as Goggle wants a merger between the camera and glasses make a visual search feature can be added. E 'used in which the law must be the user interface. Another important point is added to the application the ability to recognize faces is not having the ability to put in yet. This could change how many images are uploaded to the site. However, this option is not for obvious reasons of privacy to be heard.
