Project Tango is a computer vision project developed by Google with a team led by Johnny Lee and Larry Yang. Using various cameras and sensors, Tango mobile devices can map and track 3D environments in real time. Project Tango has many potential uses, including incorporation into AR Devices and even Google Cardboard.

Currently a Project Tango development kit in the form of a tablet is available. It was released on May 29, 2015 and cost $512.

Potential Uses

• Real time building-scale 6DOF motion tracking.

• City-scale mapping

• Rollercoaster experiment

• Registration to existing surfaces

• Tracking in difficult environments

• Real-time 3D room capture

• Real-time meshing in Unity with physics

• Precise indoor positioning

• AR-overlay indoor navigation
