谷歌推視覺功能平板電腦:幫助視障人士 改善游戲體驗
????根據《華爾街日報》(the Wall Street Journal)消息,谷歌(Google)正在開發一款擁有先進視覺功能的平板電腦。 ????谷歌計劃在下個月生產4,000臺配有7英寸屏幕的平板電腦樣機。報道稱,這款平板電腦配備了兩顆后置攝像頭、紅外深度感應器以及能夠顯示物體3D圖像的軟件。 ????這項技術可以讓視障人士更好地進行室內空間導航,此外還能改善視頻游戲的體驗。 ????這個研發團體被稱為Project Tango,他們在今年2月發布了一款擁有類似功能的智能手機。谷歌網站上關于這款手機有一份聲明,其中寫道:“Project Tango是我們的一次嘗試,我們試圖研發一款不同于任何其他設備的產品,希望它能夠擁有我們的空間感和運動感,能夠像我們一樣理解和感知這個世界。” ????Facebook在今年3月以20億美元收購頭戴式虛擬現實技術設備的制造商Oculus VR后,成為了谷歌在先進視覺技術領域的競爭者。 ????谷歌計劃將平板電腦提供給開發商,讓他們有機會進行體驗,開發相關應用。 ????谷歌公司尚未就此發表評論。(財富中文網) ????譯者:嚴匡正 |
