Google is rolling out a novel ChromeOS refresh that produces it easier to persist your on-screen apps orderly, imitate text from images, and adfair camera and microphone settings on Chromebook devices.
The ChromeOS camera app now aids Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to pull out text from seized images of letters or other write downs. It permits employrs to imitate or search the text in images, more easily change images into searchable PDFs, and have the built-in ChromeOS screen reader speak image-based text. Google says its OCR aids both horizontal and vertical distinguishion in 77 languages, and is disabled by default in pboilingo mode.
Additionassociate, the Magnifier tool will now labor with ChromeVox — permiting the screen magnifier to automaticassociate chase words when text is read adeafening, helping visuassociate impaired employrs to persist their place. This is also disabled by default, and will need both Magnifier and ChromeVox to be allowd in the device settings.
Chromebook cameras and microphones are also getting some quality-of-life betterments — using them needs turning on privacy regulates and app perignoreions in two split places, but now Google has simplified this by inserting gentleware perignoreions to the apps section of the ChromeOS settings menu. There’s also a novel Auto Gain Control (AGC) feature that permits apps enjoy video calling gentleware to automaticassociate enhance microphone volume. This should better the audio quality on calls and will alert employrs in the rapid settings panel when the feature is overriding manual audio regulates.
