When starting today Google I / O 2016 intended for developers, we learned some important innovations that will soon appear in Android. It has become more useful in carrying out tasks in the real world, to be much more efficient and ready to work with virtual reality.
The power of artificial intelligence
the most important new feature of the evening was the Google assistant. As its name suggests, thanks to the smartphone has become the assistant’s ready to answer any of his questions. Questions asked natural, ordinary language, what we would use in a conversation with a real person. Built in both the smartphone, SmartWatch, and presented at the conference, intelligent device designed to be a digital center of the home – Google Home – is to create a ubiquitous cloud. Ready to answer any question, provide any information.
Allo and Duo – I understand what you mean
Power Assistant and artificial intelligence on which it is based, is manifested in two new instant messaging presented by Google. The first is the Allo , similar in operation to the Messenger or WhatsApp. His main skill is nudge the user response in line with the course of the conversation. Allo understand not only text information but also pictures. When someone sends us a photograph of a dog made just answer: “Sweet,” “Terrible” – the communication will be faster, more comfortable – limited to choosing the right adjective.
Talk to Google Assistant to the ordinary person
Allo also allows you to talk lyrically with the assistant Google as if it were the next person on the list of our contacts . Communication re-done according to the rules of natural language. You can inquire, clarify Assistant is to correspond as a living person.
An important function of Allo has to be incognito. Interviews conducted in this mode to be encrypted. The user can also specify how long private conversations to be stored on the device.
Duo , the second messenger, used for video calls. Here extremely important, intelligent function is “KnockKnock.”
Before you pick the conversation can see the caller. We know who is calling, we see the expression on his face. We can figure out what he wants. Another important feature of the Duo will be optimization of the conversation – even in poor conditions is intended to be smooth. Google accomplish this by creating a new protocol called Quick. Applications will be available on Android and iOS summer.
Android N will be more useful
Changes made to the Android occur on several levels. Greater efficiency is to be achieved by the introduction of several functions. Some of them are quite simple – eg. A list of recently used applications will be shortened to seven. This will allow for an easier transition between them. Today, to find among the few favorites you have to scroll through a long list of full applications running once or twice.

efficiency has also improved the Multi Window feature. When you use YouTube and watch a movie, for example, for a recipe we will be able to call a new window appears in the film. In the window you will find information eg. The ingredients. There will be no need to switch between applications, stopping the film and returning to him.
interesting promises to be a function for the answer in one place, pop-up menu with the upper beam on any incoming notification from any application. Once again, this means no need to jump between the windows just something to answer in one word.
Instant Applications – use applications without installing them

If someone sends us a link, eg. To an article in the application, which we do not have, the system will download quickly the elements needed to display content. In this way, you can use applications such as. Purchase, used to purchase a ticket, pay the parking meter. Instat Apps will be compatible up to version Jelly Bean.
Daydream – Google creates the standard VR
Google looks also somewhat distant future, and creates a package of solutions that have harmonized the question of devices to interact with augmented reality. He presented a platform called Daydream .
Standard is intended to cover both smartphones, as well as goggles and helmets and controllers and the same applications . Hardware and software meet the requirements of the standard are to be labeled with the logo of “Daydream Ready”. In order to let you know that it is, what goes, will allow him to use the virtual reality without the disappointment of quality. A similar solution on computers recently presented nVidia.
The Android N find new mode – VR Mode. It has to allow more efficient use of the virtual environment even by appropriate adjustment of the display notifications .

Android Wear 2.0 – watch does not need a smartphone
Most significantly associated with a system designed for intelligent gadgets were independence application that you install on these devices. Until now communicate with those that are installed on the smartphone. They displayed only the content provided by the phone located in the vicinity. The Android Wear 2.0 is about to change – Applications to be “independent”.
The direction of artificial intelligence
Google I / O 2016 clearly showed where it is going Google. He wants to make the power of artificial intelligence becomes available every day. Today, we can of course still doubt whether the first versions Assistant, Allo or Duo will be perfect. Certainly not, these services need time to develop. Over time, however, Google will make the artificial intelligence will begin to surround us. And thus only a step to blur the boundary between devices.
In the short term, users can expect efficient, lighter Android, which becomes more mature and comfortable. The Google seems to be heading in the right direction.
