Ever spot a landmark on holiday and wonder what it is? Google Goggles uses image recognition to deliver info about what it is and more. It even works on wine bottles, books to help you find out more about the world around you. Still confused about the iPhone app? Then we’d recommend checking it out in action in our Video of the Week.
As the video below demonstrates, Google Goggles works just by pointing your iPhone at a landmark and taking a photo. A Wikipedia entry then pops up with all you need to know about it there and then.
You can even find out more about books by pointing the app at them, or even search for restaurants by voice. For the moment it only works on logos, books, DVDs and landmarks, but look out for more uses in future. Check it out in the excellent video demonstration below:
