Google is announcing a number of ChromeOS features focused on the classroom and accessibility, and one of the standout ones is the ability to control your computer with your head and facial expressions. The feature — intended for people with mobility impairments — was first announced in early December, but is now rolling out to more users with compatible Chromebooks (Google recommends 8GB of RAM or more).
This isn’t the first time Google has toyed with the idea of using your face to control devices. The company previously created an open-source AI accessibility tool for Windows games called Project Gameface, which has also been announced for Android. Here’s a sample video from Google of the technology in action, as demonstrated by software engineer Amanda Lin Dietz, who helped develop the tool.
Google is also teasing a new line of Chromebooks for 2025, with more than 20 new devices in the company's standard Chromebook and Chromebook Plus lineup launching this year. That estimate may be a bit of a stretch, as Google appears to be counting the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus that launched in October, the just-announced 14-inch Lenovo Chromebook Plus 2-in-1, and more to come.
Along with the laptops for educators and students, Google has a new set of learning-focused ChromeOS features called Class Tools. These features allow teachers to control students’ screens in real time. After sharing a pairing code, educators will be able to send content directly to students on their Chromebook screens, turn on live captions or translations, view the screen remotely, and share student work with the entire class.
In addition to these collaboration tools, Google Classroom is also integrating with Figma's FigJam, which allows teachers to assign online whiteboards to students for brainstorming and group work. Perhaps the combination of FigJam with the ability for teachers to monitor student screens will reveal who's really doing all the work for the group.
For a long time, with the development and popularity of social networking platforms, the "blue tick" has gradually become one of the most powerful characters in the internet world.
Google's Chromecast line has long been a popular choice if you want to replace your smart TV experience or turn any TV into a smart TV.
Google is adding a small but long-awaited new feature to the Play Store.
After years of neglect, Google has finally decided to refocus its investment on extended reality (XR) devices like headsets and glasses.
While not as widely discussed as some of its competitors, Google's Gemini AI has a lot going for it — and here are five reasons why Gemini deserves your attention.
There are many Android manufacturers, but not all of them pay attention to software updates. Although the situation has improved over the past decade, not all smartphone manufacturers provide great software support.
Recently, some users noticed that Google Gemini has been giving repetitive text, weird characters, and complete nonsense in some responses.
The Google app for iPhone is about to become a little less useful as Google recently removed access to Gemini AI from that app.
Losing access to your Google account can have serious consequences beyond not being able to send and receive email.
Google has just announced that users can now create videos using artificial intelligence through its Gemini chatbot and the recently launched experimental tool Whisk.
Whether you're taking your first steps into the workforce or transitioning to a new industry, Google's experimental Career Dreamer is designed to connect you with compatible roles.
Last year, Google introduced an AI-powered shopping assistant in Search that allows users to get a visual idea of how a piece of clothing would look on a specific body type.
Google has been increasingly showing interest in the field of artificial intelligence applications in medicine.
After a few days of confusion, Google has officially confirmed the issue with both the second-generation Chromecast and Chromecast Audio.
On Monday, internal documents describing the factors Google Search considers when ranking and displaying web results were leaked.
