#507 Google Lens: Search what you see

Google Lens is an AI-powered technology that uses your smartphone camera and deep machine learning to search what you see…and it’s really cool.

You can use Google Lens (either through the app, Google Assistant or Google Photos) to identify objects in images and then return a Google search based on that image. It can read text, search products, identify animals and plants, identify books and media and scan barcodes. Here is a demonstration from Google on how Google Lens works.
