Project Tango is a computer vision project developed by Google with a team led by Johnny Lee and Larry Yang. Using computer vision, Tango devices can map and track 3D environments in real time.

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
