A picture is worth a thousand words. With Google Goggles for Android no need to type your search anymore. Just take a picture. Find out what businesses are nearby. Just point your phone at a store. Turn on ‘visual search history’ to view or share your pictures at any time. Turn it off to discard them once the search is done. Goggles can also recognize English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish words and allow you to translate into other languages.
According to official help page for google mobile:
Google Goggles lets you use pictures taken with your mobile phone to search the web. It’s ideal for things that aren’t easy to describe in words. There’s no need to type or speak your query – all you have to do is open the app, snap a picture, and wait for your search results.
Google Goggles works better with certain types of queries. Try taking pictures of books & DVDs, landmarks, logos, contact info, artwork, businesses, products, barcodes, or text. Currently, it’s not so good when taking pictures of animals, plants, cars, furniture, or apparel.
For the best results when taking pictures, hold your phone in “left landscape” mode, as shown below, and press the on-screen shutter button with your right thumb.
