For some time, Google has not hidden his projects geared towards
robotics and artificial intelligence. Currently the California company
already has more than a dozen companies involved in these areas.
Although Google has already revealed some information about its
projects in robotics, there remains still some mystery around the
activity that it intends to develop with these robots. It would be a
very long term project, led by Andy Rubin, who is a well-known figure
in the Android ecosystem.
Google has confirmed the acquisition of Deepmind. We do not know
exactly how Google has paid to buy the company or the terms of the
transaction. But on some sites, it is called a price of $ 400 million.
Based in London, Deepmind find applications for its products in
simulations, games and e-commerce.
And it is perhaps this application in the world of online business that
has particularly interested Google. After successfully dominate the
global web, maybe lay down the law in the world of logistics latter
account.
In any case, this is what suggests much speculation in the
sight of all these acquisitions of robots (true) that Google did in 2013 .
In addition, last year, the Californian company has launched a
competitor to Amazon, in partnership with major retailers. The service
Google Shopping Express is not yet available in the vicinity of the
San Francisco Bay.
In 2003, Google has also launched a payment card linked to its Google
Wallet service.
Another theory, somewhat less discussed is that the firm needs the
necessary software resources to optimize "the connected home of
tomorrow".
