- Hey guys, Flo Ion from Android Central here
and we're here at Google IO 2017,
it's the last day but there's still
a couple of things to see.
Let's go see what some of the experiments are
that developers have been working on
using some of the underlying technologies
that we learned about here this week.
(upbeat music)
Okay guys I'm about to play with Giorgio Cam
which, if you've heard that name before,
it's named after Giorgio Moroder.
Yes, the godfather of dance music essentially.
So we're gonna make some dance music of our own
using machine learning.
We're gonna take a picture with this Pixel
of these various objects and have it
make a little song for us, so let's dance.
He is making rhymes right now, alright, let's uh.
Whoa, the music is getting basier.
All right, let's try the sax,
maybe we'll get something cool and sultry
and maybe a little sexy.
Uh that's not a guitar but nice try.
All right let's try,
okay last one.
Bye.
So this is called home screen arcade
and it uses live wallpapers, widgets
and your notifications to help you play
a little space invaders game on your home screen.
It's neat.
Okay guys, I'm about to play some ping pong
with a virtual wall.
This is called contraball and the way it works
is it's actually running through a stable version
of the chrome browser on a Pixel right now.
And it's, it's, I'm basically hitting a ping pong ball
against a wall and I'm sad I can't show it to you guys
because I'm actually doing a pretty good job
if I do say so myself.
Okay, I'm on my last life so maybe I'm not doing that well.
Only three points.
- [Male] This is actually an experiment by a student
from CIID in Denmark.
- [Flo] Okay.
- [Male] And he won a competition that we had
earlier this year for experiments.
And he's on something that we really like.
- [Flo] Yes.
- You make these objects that has
electrical outlet and a camera
and you can train it on the fly
to either open or shut electricity
from any device using whatever it sees from the camera.
So is she learning, running on
a raspberry pie $50 computer.
- So can I programme it?
- You can programme it to do whatever you want,
yeah give it a shot.
- [Flo] Okay, we're gonna train the OSP.
(upbeat music)
Off, on, off, oh neat.
Cool!
You guys already know that Google Chrome
is a very powerful browser.
Look at this, I just materialised some little red ball.
This is a Chrome experiment, it's using
Chrome right here with a little bit of firebase backend.
And down here there's an Intel Edison board
running Android things that's controlling
this little control hub right here, so,
we're gonna make some characters.
Make some things fly, some beautiful colours
and things and just turn knobs.
I haven't managed to crash it yet.
So that's, that's good.
That looks cool.
It's alive!
I didn't think I was gonna play a version of Pictionary
at Google IO but here we go.
We've got auto-draw behind us which has
been programmed so that we can do multiplayer mode
and actually race against the clock
to see who can draw the best.
Let's see if I can draw the best.
- [Tablet Recording] I see the garden hose, I see toe.
- [Flo] It's not a toe but.
- [Tablet Recording] I see ear, or fingers, or river.
- [Flo] Okay, you guys I thought
I could draw better than this.
Okay, this I can draw.
- [Tablet Recording] I see squiggle, or underwear,
or hexagon, oh I know, it's hourglass.
I see mountain, or arrow, oh I know it's tent.
- [Flo] Oh my gosh, it wants me to just not even try.
- [Tablet Recording] I see arrow, more stairs,
oh I know, it's diving board.
- [Flo] Okay, spreadsheet, really?
- [Tablet Recording] I see bench, or table,
or diving board, oh I know, it's spreadsheet.
- [Flo] Oh my god, flying saucer.
- [Tablet Recording] I see shoe, or hockey puck.
- [Flo] Come on.
- [Tablet Recording] Oh I know it's flying saucer.
- Close game, 30 seconds.
- It's a sli ... okay.
Look, ahhh, no, it's a book, it's a book,
come on you know it's a book, notebook.
I don't know, it's a book.
Come on!
You don't know that's a book?
Way to let me down.
Oh, at least I got second.
I'm happy with second place.
This guy, he's more interactive than you think.
Sure, goes on your face but with
Spot-the-bot you can play a game
with your friend as he tries to help you
find the bot that's in this
little virtual reality world right here.
So let's see if I can help somebody spot-the-bot.
Okay here we go, so the robot you're looking for is
orange faced, he has an orange head,
he has a blue pipe on top of his head
and he's got blue circular eyes.
Yeah, so he's got an orange head, you found him!
Cool.
The next guy's got a green box head with blue eyes
a blue spring on top of his head.
A blue cylinder on the left of his face.
- Okay, no, very similar.
- Alright, let's skip.
Alright so this guy is, uh, magenta faced
he's a cylinder, well we found one bot.
Thank you, I'm sorry.
Don't invite me to your house to play this game
because I'll make you lose, I'm sorry.
Okay guys, this is called landlines.
So we're gonna look for lines in the land
here on planet earth using Google maps information.
Uh, Google satellite imagery.
So let's see, a straight line all the way down
where's that naturally occurring?
That is a highway, in Florida.
How apropos.
Let's see.
That's in Kazakhstan which looks like a very curvy country.
Oh Marshal Islands, well that looks lovely,
nice little vacation spot.
Indiana, it looks like a command sign.
(upbeat music)
You guys, those experiments have really tired me out.
Coupled with this blazing hot sun,
part of the sunburn I may have received during this week.
I think I'm just gonna lay here
take a little rest and we'll see you later
on anroidcentral.com.
I'm playing alone right now.
This is a lot easier with daydream.
