Google's AR tape measure app is now available on all ARCore-enabled devices

-
Google Measure is a digital tape measure app that up until now was exclusive to Tango-enabled phones, but since Google dropped support for the AR platform in March, the app is now available to all ARCore-supported devices.

ARCore is Google's new augmented reality platform and it has a much broader scope, in that it's supposed to work on as many phones as possible, instead of on just a few devices with specialized hardware. As such, it has a much broader appeal and is a perfect match for Google Measure, which also has a very broad appeal. Tape measure in your pocket at any time ...

AI4ALL participants tell all—summer camps get girls involved in AI and tech

-
AI4ALL, a nonprofit working to increase diversity and inclusion in artificial intelligence, believes that all students should have the opportunity to learn about AI and explore its applications. We share the same belief, and have gotten more kids involved in computer science and technology by donating to organizations like Code.org, building programs like Made with Code and CS First, and most recently helping AI4ALL expand learning resources for underrepresented youth. With a $1 million grant from Google.org, AI4ALL can scale their nationwide summer camps that spark student interest in AI and help them build foundational technical skills.

What you missed this week on CordCutters.com

-
A podcast, a Peña, and the Premier League.Are we really starting a CordCutters podcast? Why the hell not. I mean, I've done a few hundred podcast episodes in my day. The trick, of course, is keeping things interesting, particularly in this age of excellent (if overproduced) podcasts.We're going to keep things simple, for now. We're going to keep things loose. And we're going to help answer some questions, I hope. So if you've got questions, fire 'em on over. Text is great. Or record your question and e-mail it on over. And if you've got thoughts on what you'd like to hear discussed, fire those on over, too.And, mostly, we're going to have fun. Because there's no single right way to be a cord-cutter.
