Google is all set to unveil its next-gen flagship devices dubbed Google Pixel 4 lineup next month. The official launch event called “Made by Google” is scheduled for October 15. The Pixel 4 series will bring radical changes in the design department along with the new advanced facial recognition system. Apart from these, Google Pixel 4 lineup will be the first one to come with motion detection called Soli which will allow users to control the device using hand gestures. Google is calling it “Pixel Motion Sense”.
Well, we are already aware of how the feature will work since the company itself teased the very same feature earlier. Additionally, we are also aware of the possible gestures and settings of the feature thanks to the previous leak. We now have the list of supported apps which will make use of this technology along with the supported countries.
