Google has introduced a new feature to its Lens application, allowing users to ask instant questions while recording videos. Expanding the capabilities of its visual search app, Google now enables both Android and iOS users to ask real-time questions about objects around them while using the video recording function in Lens. This new feature helps users quickly learn more about interesting things they encounter in everyday life. Lou Wang, Director of Product Management for Lens, stated that this feature is powered by Google’s Gemini model, part of the company’s artificial intelligence family.
Users will be able to instantly access the information they are curious about
As an example, Wang explains that if a user is curious about a fish, Lens can explain why the fish swims in circles and provide relevant sources.
To access the new video analysis feature, users must sign up for Google’s Search Labs program. Recording video in the Google app is as simple as pressing and holding the smartphone’s shutter button. Users will then be able to ask questions while recording, and Google’s AI Overview feature will summarize the information in response.
Additionally, Google Lens will enable users to search by both image and text simultaneously. For instance, when Lens identifies a product, it can provide details such as price, brand, reviews, and stock availability. Although this feature is currently limited to certain countries and shopping categories, it is anticipated that it will expand over time.
