The Google Tango project was officially launched four years ago, and the Tango project is dedicated to the AR space, which differentiates itself from the current handset AR, which requires 15 million 3D measurements per second using specialized sensors and matching software It real-time monitoring of the location and direction of the final combination of large amounts of data to draw a 3D model of the surrounding world.In contrast, Tango project more professional in the field of AR.
Tango project has landed on the hardware products, the first paragraph is launched by Lenovo Phab 2 Pro last year, this year ASUS also introduced the first AR phone - ZenFone AR.
Although there are products landing, but the development of Tango project is not very smooth, especially this year, Apple launched ARKit platform, and Google also launched the AR Core platform.
Although these two development platforms are not as professional as Tango, the products developed from these platforms can be backward compatible with many products, for example, based on the application developed by the Apple ARKit platform, and can use the products after 2015 (iPhone 6s) , Users do not need to buy AR mobile phone to enjoy AR's fun.
Of course, the Tango project has become a stepping stone to Google's entry into the AR space, and now its mission is to say goodbye.
