媒体报道称,这款平板电脑配备了两颗后置摄像头、红外深度感应器以及能够显示物体3D图像的软件,可以帮助视障人士,同时还能改善游戏体验。

    根据《华尔街日报》(the Wall Street Journal)消息,谷歌(Google)正在开发一款拥有先进视觉功能的平板电脑。

    谷歌计划在下个月生产4,000台配有7英寸屏幕的平板电脑样机。报道称,这款平板电脑配备了两颗后置摄像头、红外深度感应器以及能够显示物体3D图像的软件。

    这项技术可以让视障人士更好地进行室内空间导航,此外还能改善视频游戏的体验。

    这个研发团体被称为Project Tango,他们在今年2月发布了一款拥有类似功能的智能手机。谷歌网站上关于这款手机有一份声明,其中写道:“Project Tango是我们的一次尝试,我们试图研发一款不同于任何其他设备的产品,希望它能够拥有我们的空间感和运动感,能够像我们一样理解和感知这个世界。”

    Facebook在今年3月以20亿美元收购头戴式虚拟现实技术设备的制造商Oculus VR后,成为了谷歌在先进视觉技术领域的竞争者。

    谷歌计划将平板电脑提供给开发商,让他们有机会进行体验,开发相关应用。

    谷歌公司尚未就此发表评论。(财富中文网)

    Google (GOOG) is currently making a tablet with advanced vision capabilities, according to the Wall Street Journal.

    The company aims to build 4,000 prototype tablets with 7-inch screens next month. According to the report, the tablets will include two back cameras, infrared depth sensors and software to show three-dimensional images of objects.

    The technology could allow for the visually impaired to better navigate spaces inside and can also add to the experience of playing video games.

    The group, which is called Project Tango, released a smartphone with similar capabilities in February. In a statement on the company's site about the phone: "Project Tango is an attempt to create a mobile device unlike like any other, a mobile device that shares our sense of space and movement, that understands and perceives the world the same way we do."

    Facebook (FB) will become a Google competitor in the advanced vision technology space after its purchase of Oculus VR, which makes virtual reality headgear, for $2 billion in March.

    Google plans to release tablets to developers in order to give them the opportunity to experiment and create applications.
