[[ | ==Introduction== | ||
[[Tango]], also known as '''Project Tango''', is a [[computer vision]] project developed by [[Google]] with a team led by [[Johnny Lee]] and [[Larry Yang]]. Using various cameras and sensors, Tango mobile devices can map 3D environments in real time and perform [[markerless inside-out tracking]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPR9EFE20Aw</ref> This feature allows the device to become spatially aware and instantly figure out where it is in space. Project Tango has many [[#Potential Uses|potential uses]], including incorporation into [[VR Devices|VR]] and [[AR Devices]] and even [[Google Cardboard]]. | |||
Currently a Project Tango [[#Dev Kit|development kit]] in the form of a tablet is available. It was released on May 29, 2015 and cost $512. | |||
