so this is what google was doing while Apple was removing the headphone Jack.
Mahela Dimuth btw no headphone jack is not apple's idea, it was first introduced by Motorola in moto z line up. Check out. So apple isn't even trying to invent or create any thing they are just copying things or borrowing things.#RIPApple
Yep. Then again, unlike Google, Apple has always been very cloak and dagger with their r&d in development. They always have been more interested in building on [sometimes violently] acquired tech rather than developing from scratch.
Blissfully_ineffable yes. Even the new touch bar in apple macbook pro was first introduced by Toshiba.
harshad vaviya Oh, I didn't know that. It makes sense though.
The difference is that Apple is doing all of their prototypes and tests closed of, while google is putting out all of their concepts just to flex
*Project Soli - the future is now.*
Sad we have to wait over a year for it though :(
Great, now people who are always drumming a beat on tables, pencils, or on their leg can control loud things.
Very cool indeed!
Sweet!
James Edward Sved here, let me play the world's smallest violin for you with my fingers :)
Now I can eat pizza and not worry about getting my electronics getting greasy
eat with a fork lol
Well you can achieve the same with voice control :) Depends on what you want to do of course.

You are here because of Pixel 4 rumors 😁
:D
This might work well for vr/ar
Nope I am here due to UA-cam recommendations.
I hope they will put it on pixel watch as well... Really need a new smartwatch and it would be an insta buy for me
I'm here for the third time because of the Pixel 4 rumors. If they've got this working, then it's the future now.
this item seems so sensible, so easy and so mind numbing brilliant.. take something like radar and shrink it down so small - just beautiful ..
This was awesome... made me sad for Leap.
Pixel 4 is here and they decided not to put the full functionality from project soli to the pixel devices. Instead they choose a approach where dispite of having all the hardware available to use soli, they will make it seem like they are improving this tech on future pixel phones so that they can capitalize on soli’s functionality as longer as possible. A tech which was available since 2015 will fully penetrate the market by year 2025 or so, just because of the corporate greed.
What a great world we live in!
but pixel 5 does not have soli anymore right ? what happened ?
@@fairbaken OP is wrong
@@lars2299 bought a used pixel 4 xl and it is really a shame what they did with soli.
A cool Google project that wasn't announced on April 1st? It can't be!
Exactly my thought!!!!!
Halt
Exactly
did anyone else move their hands like they did in this video?
Seems just you, for now ...
i did, just to adjust my volume, switch to an active tab and check my e-mail. Jarvis is offline atm. Dang, accidentally cast a spell. oops.
Yes
lol yeah.
Indeed I did :)
This also has potential for use with sign language.
No, not at all. It wouldn't be able to read a face, you would need a camera for that. (deaf and fluent in sign language, also an engineer)
The difference between "I got it" and "I don't understand" is purely with different expression. The difference between "he is late" and "hasnt happened yet" is sticking your tongue out making the "th" sound. The face, shoulders, and depictive verb classifiers make up too much grammar, so much that the meaning gets lost if you cover the face. the grammar is different, so it also needs to be interpreted/translated. "finish touch never" means "never have been to before" or "past happen what finish touch touch 13th, total wow" translates to "I have been there thirteen times in my life!"
etc.
Google translate breaks the languages enough. also no signs for "be is am are" etc. signs don't translates to words the same. like "have you eaten cupcakes?" doesn't use the sign for "have" since it only means possession. it doesn't translate.
Avery Kucan Maybe, but I know there is a kind of sign language that basically replaces words with gestures. I can't think of the name at the moment.
+Bert Visscher Signed Exact English? SEE? Still no, unable to comprehend the dozens of handshakes.
Avery Kucan Yes, that's it. See.
Bert Visscher SEE isn't used though, except to interpret between asl and English, so the only people that would use it already are hearing anyway. It's to relay English to a deaf interpreter to interpret again into asl.
Deaf people don't use SEE, so it would be useless.
If it can capture the entire hand, you could make a real time "sign language" translator.
damn, didn't think if that, that's useful
"Patent it" - it's already too late buddy.
How awesome is THAT going to be?
You could try creating a sign language translator using a camera, but this technology removes the camera requirement and makes it more precise. It's really awesome.
@@alissonreinaldosilva1119 I don't think a camera would be precise enough to detect and translate sign language
Wow! I really didn't know that radar was so precise! I can see something like this working very well with VR.
Caudex yeah maybe in the near future it could convert hand signals into real hand motion in the virtual world ,therefore we wouldn't need the controllers for the HTC vive but instead our hands
hrishikesh rajesh
It seems like a nice alternative to the stereo imaging of the kinect. I wonder how it will hold up to the leap motion.
I'd still prefer to be holding a controller in VR for when I pick something up though. Unless I'm using the Force
Zadok the Priest ud be be surprised from the amount of idiots who dropped their controller when they had to let go in the game 😂
hrishikesh rajesh there's that new vive controller prototype that straps around your hands though, that's going to be helpful
The possibilities are endless. I thought of surgeons doing microsurgery with robotic hands remotely. Holy smokes this is genius
Part of the allure of robotic telesurgery is the force feedback element of the manipulators. How are you going to recreate this sensation solely with radar?
@@MikeTrieu great point. i have no idea what the current mechanisms are for dealing with this problem. you are right there is only visible feedback with something like this unless you could wear some kind of mechanised glove that responds to the robot arms sensors and then latency is of course an issue as well.
Look kids, this shit is the future!!
Exactly.
that's true
Super awesome. Next we will be flying drones with these tech
alishanmao What are you doing here!? What happened to your red cat videos? What are your thoughts of flitetest's builds???
> next will be [random scranmble of tech buzzwords]
cool, right?
exactly man fly drones withshit..ilike your thought
Actually there is a drone with gestures- the dji spark
if they don't randomly abandon it.
I am REALLY excited about this. I want to see what we can do with this. Keep Going Google!
thanks @ATAP for sharing this innovation and seeding innovators mind and inspiring us think different and build meaningful solutions.
This is giving me Black Mirror vibes
klauslippo nearly everything new technology should
Now this is something, the future is really exciting and scary at the same time.
The good thing about this technology is that it might be really cheap, obviously not at launch but eventually since is made from literally free materials.
As long as it doesn't end up inside my hand, I'm happy!
There are so many applications for this technology. This is the future.
Ikr!!
no its not
May the force be with you :)
Great! Now we can roll a booger and browse the web or seek the radio station simultaneously.
They can be also used to recognize the sign language for blind people too.. what a great technology !! very inspiring!!
What a magnificent idea. The simple and beautiful solution for the leap motion control.
use this with virtual reality so you don't have to hold those controller things
Mindblow
+J_laubster Well you wouldn't need them for some applications, but when you're playing a shooter and are supposed to be holding a gun, it wouldn't help with immersion. Sure you could use your fingers, but I think holding a controller with enough of a gun shape to it and some good haptic feedback would be miles better. The REALLY good usage of it would be to use both devices in tandem, best of both worlds.
Or could use the hand gesture with VR with games like The Elder Scrolls Skyrim
Mind = Blown
Well, you could also take advantage of the whole new platform to make games that are miles better than the generic, overexplored genre of shooters
it already happened www.leapmotion.com/
Please put this in my laptop so i never have to use a bloody touch pad again!
Nope, windows x] Its not bad but image?
i agree with you but, macbook performance is just limited compared to my needs of performance laptop
If they gather enough peoples attention with this, this technology will be revolutionary for both reality and virtual reality.
we are glad that we have googleATAP
Flipando me he quedado con este Project Soli de Google ATAP, muy futurista! Ya veremos
ya ves!! =) es un puntazo
alucinante!
Guau
¡Chulísimo! El reto más gordo que veo aquí es cómo dar feedback al usuario para que «sienta» lo que está haciendo. Quiero decir que si yo me pongo a hacer un gesto en el aire, necesito saber que estoy «tocando» lo que quiero tocar, y no otra cosa. No me gustaría ajustar algo que no es lo quiero, ya que tengo intentar volver a dejarlo como estaba y a continuación volver a probar con otro gesto o un poco más al lado a ver si acierto con lo que quiero hacer.
Looks very interesting. Good luck with the projects next phases.
Nice to see this finally making itself into a product. Looking forward to the Pixel 4
Absolutely fantastic step towards future innovations......
A lot of brain power in that room.
I assume it's over 9000
Monitors have a awful button navigation for their menu
this would help so much
Not only would this be a game changer for office ergonomics around the world, BUT my mute friends could use this to speak through a computer via ASL irt! An incredible boost for quality of life!
Mind BLOWN! This is ingenious! And when I look at the date the video was published - it's over a year old! Why haven't I seen this in any real life product yet? The number of application areas for this technology must be huge!
the 60s were pretty cool.
the first thing that came to mind was video games possibilities😁
Same here. The true nerd in me came out when my first thought was, " Wow, you could use intricate hand gestures to cast spells."
It already exists, it's called a xbox 360 kinect.
this would be a better version of the kinect
Eduardo Alvarez exactly. I was thinking more along the lines of very discreet movements for variations of actions. I suppose people might not enjoy a game where you had to learn a lot of very careful and precise movements.
lol or ninja jutsus
wow! I'm impressed.
great ideas put to greater ideas in new and more exciting technologies. I've seen several novel products from Google but this one is special, the applications are phenomenal in the private sector but as well in the public sector, in Military applications, and in the Medical field. Bravo! Google, Bravo!
This is definitely a beautiful intermediate step to what we want. The best HMI will be the mind.
Can you imagine if we implemented this with doors? You literally wouldn't have to open a door with your hands, making it anti-bacteria... So much potential with this piece of technology
+Easy_Sleazy You already get that with laser. Toilet flushing and water taps.
+Tervaification Anti-bactieria is useful in medical and other scientific applications, but an anti-bacterial world would be a bad thing. Good bye immune system!
can you imagine if i control you by just my hand XD
Doorknobs usually don't carry that much bacteria
Maybe use it to lift the toilet seat?
It will never be as reliable and accurate as advertised. No way.
+Tim Suetens YOU are the reason we can't have nice things
+Defcon 5 He said the same thing about touch screen :D
+Mood Milhem lol lol lol
Indian always be the part of future projects👏👍
this is something that i want for a long time now ... i hope this technology will be ready to use in few years from now
oh boy
Im thinking glowy sci-fi augmented reality control panels. This technology has bundles of potential. Nice work.
Now this is cool.
Yup...
c00l
I absolutely love this and cannot wait to see it in a cell phone
It'll be a feature on the Pixel 4 releasing in December
Oh, Nice! I had the same idea when I read about radars for the first time. I think I will work on a similar project in the coming years.
soon...Naruto's hand signs will be a thing
keep it up, it'll be cool if used in everyday things. a year later though and no word on it
this is the coolest new technology I've seen yet. makes sense and opens up barriers previously known to many devices and demographics
Amazing, I hope they put this on tv. The day will come when we don't have to type or speak to or touch. amazing, truly amazing.
"My name's Ivan Poupyrev and I make more money in a year than you will in 10."
OMG I'm in love with this!!!
This project has great potential and it would be amazing if it was released to the public in the 2 years.
So finally introducing in Pixel 4!
cant wait to draw with this tech. looks great!
I love this, a new, more precise, and accurate way to interact with technology! it creates endless possibilities
awsome nd i feal proud when i see project soli lead hardware engineer (hakim raja). proud to be an Indian 😍😎
Anyone who's seen Black Mirror is freaking out right now...
That's nothing.. have you watched this year's youtube rewind. We are in Fifteen Million Merits(S01E02) already.
Oh yeah... that's the cycling one, right? Well...shit.
I view them all as being applicable to the modern world. There's always some futuristic aspect that makes what's happening more obvious and clear, but it's all the same. For instance in Be Right Back - people will keep the social media accounts of their deceased loved ones around, and look back to them just to read words that person wrote. So the robot is sort of an extrapolation of something we already do. I see each one as an allegory, like The Veldt or 1984.
wow! this is so innovative compared to removal of the 3.5mm jack!
this comment didn't age well.
this tech has come to the Pixel 4 and it sucks aaaand the pixel has also ditched the 3.5mm jack. Lmao
That suttle hint on your video calls that google+ and hangout calls still exist, brilliant. :)
Thank you for your great work. This will definatly get used in the future.
Music producers: am I the only one picturing it as a studio tool? 🙏
ohhh yeeeh
AWFULJ just why ?
and now wait for 10 years////
Let's say 5 years.
This is very innovative and really cool. Looking forward to commercial operations.
At the tip top of things. Thanks For The Build 😎
This would be so cool! I'm looking forward to trying this tech sometime in my life!

@@harveyuu2606 it's here pixel 4
place this on every corner of your house and you get Tony Stark shit!!
200odd300 Just what I was thinking!!!
Place this on every corner of your house and you'll have to get used to the shower turning off when someone makes a coffee. You can't have all these bouncing around on each other when hand movements are made or you're in for a bad time
Place this in every corner of your house, and you every movement will be tracked and logged for the rest of your days. This has the potential to chart the movement of your lips to "record" what you are saying as well. As with any tech, there is a dangerous side to it, and this one is quite frightening. Would I use it on other people, YES, would I use this in my home, Absolutely NOT!
Jason McCabe Very true aswell
extreme paranoia aswell
can't wait to use this new technology. great job
had a good project. keep on the way, i will appreciate it. one day you will get the day want you want,
thank you sir.
Now that's what i call " *COOL* "
Looks good, as long as it's not constantly reading your hand gestures. I don't want to scratch my hand and have something happen I didn't intend.
Yeah, I would definitely want Soli activated only by a very intentional gesture.
Amazing!!!
Thats is the way to understand the LANGUAGE of the UNIVERSE/ALIENS.
WAVES, SOUNDS, SIGNAL.
In our university we are working on a similar project, without the Millions of funds, we have achieved similar results. :-)
I'm really interested to see a system that pairs this technology with devices that provide haptic feedback in a VR or AR environment.
Microwaving your nerves is commonly considered harmful... But that didn't prevent people from putting their heads in front of powerful radar transmitters and hearing their ping.
You make no sense.
In English you usually say something polite like "Could you explain that, please?" when you need clarification. You can read more about the confusing part here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_auditory_effect
Garganzuul Tacos
Eh, you can already approximate this with focused ultrasound. I believe Disney Research and others demoed this a few years back with ultrasounic phased arrays. What's cool is that ultrasound can be used for both ranging/sensing and limited haptics. It literally can cause air to push back against you (airbending?)
Virtual reality control anyone? way to go, Google!
Epic
Kelli Hughes I'm guessing from people we have circled in common that you're ingress enlightened?

This is Google, this is what we called innovation
But people are going to think you're playing with buggers
epic comment
Alvaro Hernandez Lol
hahaha
Haha
"For years radios had been operated by means of pressing buttons and turning dials; then, as the technology became more sophisticated, the controls were made touch sensitive-- One merely had to brush the panels with their fingers; Now all you had to do was wave your hand in the general direction of the components and hope. It saved a lot of muscular expenditure, of course, but that meant you had to sit infuriatingly still if you wanted to keep listening to the same program.'
Just one on/off button for the radar input und you can move like you want. Or just a gesture to start/stop interpreting movements
Thank you guys, for innovating in this kind of tool that simplify our lifes. Just Amazing.
This is so great I cant explain how excited it looks and represents itself in the video..great minded people doing wonderfull things with technology..great project...
How much of this is ACTUAL footage of the hardware working.
None, it's just concept.
Dude, they have demoed it both publicly and to press, and as they say in the video, "the pipeline that we BUILT" not going to build.
@@MentalEdge jokes on you
@@PretendoDirects not anymore
@@saifunazar322 They even had a lab demonstrator you could purchase at I/O 2015. The hardware always worked. It's just the engineering needed to integrate it into a consumer-facing product wasn't ready until this year.
1:33-1:35 lmao he *really* is proud
I think I am in love with google...so many revolutionary projects...
This is really awesome !!! Great work guys !! Keep it up !!!
Think of what this can do for Google Glass.
Is that sarcasm.
The technology is so promising that it never debut since 2014.
Super concepts....this will definetly going to work...
Wow, great stuff and I look forward to using it one day...
As amazing as this technology is, the interaction just reminds me of leap. Remember that? Exactly...
What is the frequency/bandwidth emitted by this device?
Afrocanuk in Radio - Microwave Frequency.
I'd like to know too--I'm wondering myself if it might use the usual license-free "ISM" UHF/microwave bands, i.e. 900 MHZ, or 2.4, 5, or 5.8 GHz...
Realy amazing project.....I want to see this project in our day today life
you guys are really doing great work :)
