Lenovo rumoured to be working on another Project Tango device

There’s a report coming from Ubergizmo that claims we haven’t seen the last Project Tango device from Lenovo. This Google Project introduced around two years ago makes use of special sensors embedded into mobile devices to map out 3D spaces for augmented reality purposes. Lenovo first introduced a Project Tango-enabled device called the Phab 2 Pro. And it seems that isn’t the last we’ve seen from Lenovo. According to Jeff Merideth, general manager of Android and Chrome at Lenovo, the company plans to launch new Project Tango devices next year. That would put Lenovo ahead of other manufacturers, since this will already be a second-generation device and other makers have yet to introduce their first version.

At the moment, there are only a few dozen apps available that take advantage of the depth-sensing capabilities of Project Tango. But perhaps with more devices coming out, we hope to see more apps.
