Google’s Project Tango prototype smartphone is armed with four cameras to allow it to take stock of its environment and record and use 3D depth-sensing info, and it’s basically just a bunch of cameras and sensor glommed onto a fairly impressive Android smartphone with a quad-core processor and 2GBs of RAM to crunch all that environment data. iFixit got to tear it down and have a look… Read More

Back in February, Google announced a new project that they were working on called Project Tango. The project was basically a smartphone that came with a pretty interesting camera that would be able to scan its surroundings in 3D, thus allowing it to use the captured data to generate 3D maps and virtual environments.
This might come in handy for those who are planning on renovating their homes or buying new furniture and they need to have a 3D model in order to better visualize what’s going on, and how much space that they might have to work with. (more…)
