If you missed the Google I/O Keynote 2015 yesterday at this year’s Google developer conference, you will be pleased to know that it is now available to watch and has been published to YouTube for your viewing pleasure.
The Google Keynote 2015 allows you to glimpse the latest product and platform innovations from Google that you can expect to roll out over the coming months and years. This year’s Google I/O event has unveiled a number of interesting projects, including Android M, Google Project Brillo, and even new hardware from GoPro in the form of a 16-camera array designed to capture 360-degree footage for virtual reality applications.
Android M: A Step Forward in Mobile OS
One of the most anticipated announcements at the Google I/O 2015 was the introduction of Android M. This new version of the Android operating system promises to bring a host of new features and improvements. Among the key highlights are enhanced app permissions, which give users more control over what data apps can access. Additionally, Android M introduces a new power management feature called Doze, which significantly extends battery life by putting the device into a deeper sleep state when not in use. The update also includes support for fingerprint recognition, which will enhance security and streamline user authentication processes.
Google Project Brillo: The Future of IoT
Another significant announcement was Google Project Brillo, a new platform aimed at the Internet of Things (IoT). Brillo is designed to provide a streamlined, efficient operating system for smart devices, enabling them to communicate seamlessly with each other. This platform is expected to revolutionize the way we interact with our home appliances, security systems, and other connected devices. Brillo is built on the foundation of Android, ensuring compatibility and ease of use for developers. Alongside Brillo, Google also introduced Weave, a communication protocol that allows IoT devices to talk to each other, regardless of the manufacturer.
The Google I/O 2015 also showcased some exciting hardware innovations. One of the standout pieces of hardware was the 16-camera array from GoPro. This array is designed to capture immersive 360-degree footage, making it ideal for virtual reality applications. The footage captured by this array can be used to create highly realistic VR experiences, which have applications in gaming, education, and even professional training.
