Google Unveils Project Astra
At the recent Google I/O 2025, Google made an exciting announcement about Project Astra. This innovative initiative aims to deliver a low latency, multimodal AI experience. It promises to enhance not only Google Search but also the Gemini AI app and various products from third-party developers.
One of the standout features is the new Search Live capability within Google Search. Users can activate this feature while in AI Mode or using Lens, Google’s visual search tool. This functionality allows users to click the “Live” button, enabling them to ask questions about real-time visuals captured by their smartphone cameras. Project Astra is set to redefine how we interact with search technology, making it more intuitive and responsive.
