Google is trying to push Google Lens and as a result, has now made it a part of the Google homepage for easier visual searches. The functionality is already a part of Google Photos and Chrome on both mobile and desktop. Take a look at how Google Lens will work on Google.com.
The Google Lens option now sits next to the voice search option on Google.com. The announcement came from Google’s VP of Engineering for Search, Image Search, and Len, Rajan Patel. This change appears like a big one for Google Search “doesn’t change often!“
The google homepage doesn’t change often, but today it did. We’re always working to expand the kinds of questions you can ask and improving how we answer them. Now you can ask visual questions easily from your desktop. pic.twitter.com/p9ldYvXnTK— Rajan Patel (@rajanpatel) November 1, 2022
If the image involves text, there will be options to translate it or get more information on the text. This is pretty similar to Google Lens on Chrome for Android and iOS and if you often use it, Google Search’s integration will be easy and breezy too.
