What is Google Lens?

Everybody wants to know what is Google Lens:

Google Lens

Google Lens is an image recognition technology developed by Google, designed to bring up relevant information related to objects it identifies using visual analysis based on a neural network.

Google Lens is a tool which uses your device’s camera to interact with the world around you and extract useful information. This information is then used in concert with other apps on your phone to produce useful results seamlessly, quickly and increasingly accurately.

Google Lens gets integrated into the camera app. Point your camera at real world text, then copy and paste the words. Or aim your lens at a snazzy dresser to call up similar clothing on your device. Google is integrating its augmented reality visual helper Lensdirectly into camera apps on phones like its Pixel.

How well does Google Lens work?

This is a very emergent piece of tech. It doesn’t yet work on all devices and does have trouble identifying certain objects or providing the right options in the right context. However, with competition from other big brand names in this field, you can rely on Google to keep improving this app in the future.
