Long overdue: Google is installing Assistant in YouTube

Google Assistant Smartphone App Head

Finally, Google had a good idea again. A test run is currently underway for the Google Assistant in the YouTube app. Of course, it’s not about controlling YouTube by voice. Instead, Assistant should be able to automatically provide further information. For example, to an artist when you watch a music video. Or the cast of the film when we watch a trailer.

Google Assistant is supposed to expand the YouTube app sensibly

The first screenshots show how practical this can be with the example of films just mentioned:

And so can Assistant in YouTube provide further information on all videos with a “click”. Without having to change the app or make a search query yourself.

Announcement is pending: Test run before the final rollout

As mentioned, this new integration is currently a test phase. So it may not even be visible to many people. Google wants Assistant but in as many products as possible and thus closer to the people, which is why the integration into the YouTube app has certainly long been decided. If you don’t feel like it, you can ignore the assistant area, as I personally do with the comment column on YouTube.

PlayStation VR2 頭戴裝置最終設計揭盅

繼 1 月公布 PlayStation VR2 的規格和功能後, Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) 剛公布 PS VR2 的最終設計。在用色和設計上匹配 PS5 主機的黑白色調,但又有配合人體工學的球狀設計。 PS VR2 的頭戴裝置與 PS VR2 Sense 控制器一樣採用互相匹配的圓型球狀設計,代表玩家進入虛擬世界時所感受到的 360 度視角。 PS VR2 頭帶仍然採用旋鈕來調校鬆緊,但就參考上一代 PS VR 對重量平衡作出調整,另外,新頭戴裝置又採用可調整眼罩,玩家可調節眼罩區與面部的距離,鏡片也加入了調整兩片鏡片之間瞳距的轉盤,以適應玩家的瞳距優化視野。而耳機插孔位置就維持不變。 早前 SIE 公布 PS VR2 會採用 4 鏡頭 Inside-out Tracking 追蹤系統,又會加入震動回饋和眼動追蹤功能。大家可能會擔心因而令頭戴裝置的重量增加,不過 SIE 就表示新頭戴裝置重量不增反略減,而 SIE 資深藝術設計師 Yujin Morisawa 又表示在眼罩頂部和前方表面之間留有空間作通風口,避免鏡頭產生霧氣。 此外, PS VR2 頭戴裝置又會採用單線設計簡化佈線,前後綁帶上又會加入微小的 PlayStation 符號,以提升玩家的舒適感受。…
