Project Tango brings a new kind of spatial perception to Android devices by adding advanced computer vision, image processing, and special vision sensors. A Project Tango device maps the 360-degree environment around it, meaning that as it is moved it navigates and views the changing environment in the same way as a person would. As the car is viewed through the device, the virtual car moves in relation to how the user moves.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2460\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2460\" style=\"width: 890px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eastwind.es\/marketing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/FiatChrislerAccentureProjectTangoappaugmentedreality_MWC2016_1200pix_dos.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2460\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2460\" src=\"https:\/\/eastwind.es\/marketing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/FiatChrislerAccentureProjectTangoappaugmentedreality_MWC2016_1200pix_dos.jpg\" alt=\"Fiat-Chrisler sales app using Google Project Tango by Accenture. \u00a9 Accenture.\" width=\"890\" height=\"646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eastwind.es\/marketing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/FiatChrislerAccentureProjectTangoappaugmentedreality_MWC2016_1200pix_dos.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/eastwind.es\/marketing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/FiatChrislerAccentureProjectTangoappaugmentedreality_MWC2016_1200pix_dos-768x557.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 890px) 100vw, 890px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2460\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Fiat-Chrisler sales app using Google Project Tango by Accenture. \u00a9 Accenture.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Users of the FCA car configuration solution can walk freely around a full-scale vehicle in almost any environment because Project Tango enables an untethered, handheld experience that does not rely on external tracking technology such as markers, beacons or GPS.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>An entire new retail experience for clients<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The process of making decisions about cars will be completely transformed with the new generation of mobile devices.
