Google's Project Tango Brings Experimental 3D Sensors, Navigation to Smartphones

Fast on the heels of Google Glass is Google’s latest hardware experiment, a 3D enabled smartphone capable of 3 dimensional scanning and navigation. It’s likely to be the future of Google Glass capabilities.

Our current prototype is a 5” phone containing customized hardware and software designed to track the full 3D motion of the device, while simultaneously creating a map of the environment. These sensors allow the phone to make over a quarter million 3D measurements every second, updating its position and orientation in real-time, combining that data into a single 3D model of the space around you.
