Google Lens will come directly to Samsung devices. The Artificial Intelligence system, which initially only came to the Pixel series devices, will soon be available for all of Samsung's most cutting-edge devices. We refer to the Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy S8+, Samsung Galaxy S9, Samsung Galaxy S9+ and Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
But, do you know what exactly Google Lens is for and why it can be useful on any device? If you haven't used/heard about it before, you should know that Google Lens is an artificial intelligence system that allows users to use images of places or objects to get information about them.
That is, you can retrieve a photograph of the Segovia aqueduct. And what Google Lens will provide you with information about the monument You can also use an image of a painting by Velázquez. Or from the Puerta de Alcalá. And Google Lens will give you information about them.
A more powerful Google Lens
The first Google Lens is the one we described above. But there is another way. And it is much more powerful. Because it is capable of functioning in real time and through the mobile phone's camera.
It would therefore be enough for users to point to an object, a landmark, a famous building, a work of art, a flower, an insect or something else. What you would then get, thanks to Google Lens, would be additional information.
Probably in the form of links or even YouTube videos Another interesting feature would be the one that would also allow users to add information about contacts. Through the camera, we could photograph a business card and the information would be added directly to the contact section.
This will finally be the modality that will reach Samsung devices. Google Lens is expected to come to the Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy S8+, Samsung Galaxy S9, Samsung Galaxy S9+, and Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
At Mobile World Congress 2018, the Google company explained that Google Lens would come to Google Photos for everyone. And so it has been. However, he said that the Google Lens system based on the camera system would land exclusively for the most powerful models.
But also other leading smartphones from brands such as LG, Motorola, Sony, Huawei and Nokia.It is even expected that it can reach the Apple iPhone. In any case, if you own any of the Samsung devices mentioned above, you should prepare for the update. Because the feature has already started rolling out to the devices. To access this functionality, it will only be necessary to open the Google Assistant and click on the Google Lens logo, located in the lower right corner of the screen.
It is possible, however, that in order to be able to test this feature for the first time, you first need to be subscribed to the beta program. We refer to Google App Beta, which allows you to access certain applications and functions exclusively, before the application has been made available to common users. And this could be the case. If you want to sign up, go directly to this link for Google App Beta.
