Google’s Project Tango hasn’t been making the news lately. But the company’s experiments with machine vision and sensing technology continue. In fact, the Project Tango development kit is out now for Canada and South Korea. The dev tablets now cost $512 (from the $1,024 at launch). It comes with a 7-inch display, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a Tegra K1 processor, and runs on Android 4.4 KitKat (but gets frequent updates to improve its unique software capabilities). What sets it apart is the depth-sensing cameras and orientations sensors that allow it to create a 3D map of a certain area.

By the end of the month, or on August 26th to be exact, the tablet will also be available in Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. The device can be bought by anyone in the supported country, but, of course, it’s geared towards software developers.
