Google's making it easier for people with low vision to find objects using their phone

On Global Accessibility Awareness Day, Google introduced new features and enhancements to improve accessibility across its software. Notably, Android’s Lookout tool received an AI-powered upgrade to help visually impaired users identify specific objects like seating and bathrooms. Additionally, the Look to Speak app now includes a text-free mode to aid those with cognitive or literacy challenges, and Project Gameface has expanded to Android, allowing control via head movements and facial gestures. Other updates include enhanced sound notifications and broader voice guidance in Google Maps, emphasizing Google's commitment to accessibility improvements.
