Project Tango: Making Any Space a Play Space

Project Tango is blurring the lines between the real world and the virtual world. Timothy Jordan, host of The Developer Show, heads to the Project Tango Sandbox at I/O to learn more about games and apps that are possible with Project Tango’s motion tracking, depth perception and area learning. Hear from Noah Falstein, Chief Game Designer and Eitan Marder-Eppstein, Senior Software Engineer about games like Woorld and Phantogeist, and apps that allow the user to place virtual objects in the real world and move around in the space using the Project Tango device.

Last week, thousands of you joined us at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA, and millions more watched remotely for Google I/O. Together with you, we transformed Shoreline into a festival of hands-on learning with over 200+ technical talks, dozens of interactive demos and an After Hours party with art cars and a karaoke rickshaw.

Thanks so much for making it a special moment for all of us! #io16

The I/O Requests program was a success once again! This year, we received and answered 70 requests from all over the world. We had a lot of fun tracking down answers for you across Shoreline (and we got a tan and burned some calories while we were at it)!

Here are some of our favorite requests from the 3-day #io16 festival:
1. +Dan Scott was curious about some floating pieces of paper he noticed in the Shoreline Amphitheatre the morning of day 2. It turns out it was left over confetti from the Wednesday night concert, and we recreated the experience for him: goo.gl/KOMcRV.
2. When +Paolo Amoroso watched the keynote he was curious which movie was featured during the introduction of Daydream. The answer is the IMAX film “A Beautiful Planet”: goo.gl/JHXON2.
3. It seems like the chicken dance is becoming an annual request from members of Google’s +Google Top Contributor Program: goo.gl/34ulyf.

You can see all the requests we fulfilled in the I/O ’16 Request Google+ Collection: goo.gl/xZiO9Z. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Until next year,
Your I/O Requests Team
