Let’s Tango

One of Google’s most intriguing innovations, the Tango augmented reality computing platform, is finally here. And it’s in the form of a phone: The Phab 2 Pro. The Tango platform can be a bit difficult to understand, but imagine a phone that can, for instance, create a 3D map of your room, and then allow you to play games where objects are placed realistically within that space. The potential of this software package is immense. The keyword here, however, is “potential,” as the Tango is still a work in progress. But if you like being an early adopter of emerging technology, the Phab 2 Pro is the way to go.
