The Google Goggles app automatically recognises different kinds of objects and places via your mobile phone camera. Its clever enough to read text and translate it, recognise landmarks, books, contact information and even famous artwork.
The app is perfect for those who are frequent travellers (especially those going to countries that speak a foreign language), art enthusiasts or even wine lovers! Using the built in mobile camera and the Android operating system, Google Goggle is able to recognise millions of objects and places. The app captures images from your mobile camera, computes text recognition and the displays results from the endless amount of information available through the Google search engine.
