Google Lens, an image recognition service based on artificial intelligence, was introduced to Android phones in 2017 as the holy heir to Google Goggles. However, this year it is only available on mobile. In early April, we saw Google expand Google Photos on the desktop. However, this is not very useful because it let users to copy text from images only through optical character recognition (OCR). Sooner Google finally brought Google lens visual search tool to desktop via popular chrome browser.
Google Lens option
In the latest version of Google Chrome for PC. The context menu that appears when you right-click an image now has a new Search Image with Google Lens option. The Google Lens integration replaces the “Google Image Search” option. This allows Chrome users to view images by sending them to Google Image Search. And viewing the results of the relevant web and images is also allow.
When looking for an image with the new Google Lens integration, you will be taken to les.google.com/search. This allows device to crop or focus on a specific part of an image. The mobile version of Chrome will have a photo search feature in Google Lens for a while.
Lenses in Chrome
In case of recent confirmation of the addition of Chromium Gerrit, the next version of Chrome will add a new version of the Content Menu. This will allow users to search for selected pages with Google Lens. So you can select text and search for lenses in Chrome.
The Google Lens reverse image search tool comes as part of the recently released Google Chrome 92. However, integration is not yet active for everyone and is likely active via a server-side switch. I updated my Chrome browser to v92, but I was still getting the old “Search Google for images” option in the context menu.
