Feeling bored? Need a little excitement in your life? Well, have you ever thought about having a virtual animal right in your own home? It may sound like something out of a sci-fi movie, but thanks to Google search, you can now conjure up augmented-reality animals and bring them into your real world! And let me tell you, it’s not just a passing fad. People are still going crazy over these adorable creatures!
Imagine being able to see tigers, cats, dogs, and even dinosaurs right in your living room. It’s all possible with Google’s augmented-reality animals. And the best part is, you don’t need to go to a zoo or a pet shop to experience this magic. You can do it all from the comfort of your own home!
How to Make Magic Animals Appear
You might be wondering how to get started with this exciting new feature. Well, I’ve got you covered. Here are three methods to bring virtual animals into your mixed-reality world.
The Easy Way
Google actually introduced 3D objects into its search over a year ago. To find these amazing creatures, all you need to do is search for your favorite animal on Google. It could be a tiger, a cat, or even something more exotic. Once you’ve typed in the name, look for the Google information box on the search results page. And there it is, the magical “View in 3D” button!
Simply click on the button, and a viewer will appear, allowing you to place your virtual animal right in your own space. Move your phone around as instructed, and let it scan your surroundings. Before you know it, you’ll have a cute little companion right by your side. Pinch to zoom in and out to resize the animal. It’s that easy!
See that “View in 3D” button? That’s your AR link in Google Search.
FAQS
What if you don’t see the 3D button?
If you’re not seeing the 3D button, it might be because you’re browsing in desktop-view mode. On an iOS device, try tapping the “Aa” icon on the search bar in Safari. Look for an option that says “request mobile website” and tap on it. For Chrome, go to settings (the three-dot icon on the lower right) and tap on “request mobile site.” Once you’ve made these changes, you should see the 3D button appear.
Can I record my virtual animal?
Absolutely! You can take a screenshot by tapping your power and volume buttons (or power and home button on iOS devices). If you want to record a video, you can use the built-in screen capture feature on iOS. Simply add screen capture recording to your Control Center tools in the settings and start recording. Don’t forget to save these precious moments to your photo roll!
Even More Animals for You
If you want to explore a wider range of animals and objects, there are AR-compatible apps available for download. One such app is Sketchfab, an online 3D object repository that offers a ton of AR-compatible 3D objects. From dinosaurs to scorpions, the possibilities are endless. Just be sure to explore these options with your kids and make sure everything is appropriate and not too scary.
Don’t Forget About Snapchat
Snapchat is not just for silly filters and fun effects. It also offers animal transformations and disguises through its face filters and AR effects. With a Snapchat account, you can have a blast trying out different animal looks and even altering your surroundings. Parents, make sure to supervise your kids and choose suitable options together. And if you want to keep these memories to yourself, you can save them locally on your phone without having to share online.
Conclusion
In these challenging times, finding ways to bring joy and entertainment into our lives is essential. Google’s augmented-reality animals provide a fun and magical experience for both kids and adults.
