Google AR Search Reportedly Adds 23 New Insects, Context Link Spotted in Google News.

Google AR search allows users to view the insects in 3D superimposed in the surroundings.


Google has reportedly added 23 new insects to its AR search feature, allowing users to virtually see them roaming in their homes. The new insects added to AR search include various kinds of beetles, butterflies, and cicadas. Separately, Google is also testing a new ‘For Context' feature in Google News. This feature will essentially give you a broader perspective on the primary news search. The contextual link shows up right below the main news, and this context link is usually from the same publication.

The Verge reports that Google has added 23 new insects in its AR Search results. This includes rhinoceros beetle, Hercules beetle, Atlas beetle, stag beetle, giant stag, Miyama stag beetle, shining ball scarab beetle, jewel beetle, ladybug, firefly, Rosalia batesi, swallowtail butterfly, morpho butterfly, atlas moth, mantis, grasshopper, dragonfly, hornet, robust cicada, brown cicada, periodical cicada, Walker's cicada, and evening cicada.

To search for the new insects, type the name in search and then click on the ‘View in 3D' option. The insect will then superimpose into your background and buzz around the house. This feature works only on AR Core supported devices running on Android. iPhone users will need to run on iOS 11 software.

  • Separately, Google has started showing context links in Google News for specific search results. This feature was spotted by Valentin Pletzer, and it appears to be live only on mobile for now. Few Google News stories have an additional small box at the bottom that show context links about the same topic from the same publication. This ‘For Context' box shows up only for a few publications and only for a few stories for now. Google may be testing it with a few publications, and stories from CNET and Forbes appear to be showing context links. These links look to offer a bigger picture about the primary story in Google News. There is no clarity on when this feature will roll out broadly for all users, and how exactly it will work.

Top 10 most advanced fighter jets in 2022

  Fighter jets are arguably the most important aircraft of any air force. Their task is both to defend the airspace and attack the enemy. They have to be fast, stealthy, be able to carry heavy payloads and deliver with pinpoint precision. So, a fighter must be incredibly advanced to be any good on the modern battlefield.   Most f ighter jets in modern armies belong to the 4th generation. They are maneuverable, carry advanced radars and are extremely adaptable.  5 th generation fighter jets are the latest and the most advanced machines. Not only do they have stealth characteristics, they are also equipped with the latest avionics, data links and sensors.   But the latest equipment also carries a price to match. So, many nations will also upgrade their 4th generation jets with 5th generation electronics, rather than buy all new jets. These fighters belong to the. 4+ or 4.5 generation .  Therefore, AeroTime’s top 10 list is bas...
