As a Search Engine Expert and Web Analyst Google has facinated me by the products and insights the seach engine comes up with AND the creativity of products that others, outside of Google, come up with for improving the Search Engine.

One such product of the latter type, still on the drawing board, is called Google Vision.

Get lost? Do you? Well, yet another bright young designer from the U.K is developing a system that will have tag and name exactly what your staring at. Google Vision is a conceptual product developed by Callum Peden, for the worlds favorite search engine. The product provides the user with a truly unique information hub by combining GPS, OLED technology and advanced image recognition in the form of a retractable screen device.

The Global Positioning System will see the end of wondering the streets asking for directions and the small roller ball will allow for easy navigation of the flexible screen. Brilliant for identifying landmarks whilst on holidays, Google vision acts as a personal; tour guide.

As well as this, advanced image recognition will mean Google Vision can target well known landmarks. Then using the increased coverage of wireless internet, provide the user with information on their surroundings wherever they may be.

Sounds like some interesting products based on search technology will be coming to market in the next couple of years.
