Google's Arts & Culture app adds art recognizer, Cardboard supportJuly 20, 2016 - 14:03 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Google's new Arts and Culture app puts the works of over 1,000 museums in the palm of your hand, Engadget reports. The app is more than just an online gallery, however, it's a suite of tools that allows users to dive deep into each museum's collection and beyond -- borrowing the best of Google Photos, Streetview and 360-degree videos to bring history to life. For example, if users are curious to explore a historic Cathedral, they can take a 360-degree tour of, say, St. Paul's with Google Street View, or pop their phone into Google Cardboard for a first-person experience. The app features daily news, themed lists and curated exhibits from partner museums, links to a new YouTube channel and even has an "Art Recognizer" mode that will identify paintings in select museums.
