Google Now Camera Search

[Rizy7]

Just realised when you are in google now you can use the camera to search for things. Thought I'd share as I think its a really cool feature and wasn't aware of it until now.

yeah i've seen it before and it doens't work very well I don't think. It's probably still in beta or something and only works on popular product logos and stuff. Tried taking a picture of my computer and no results. Took a picture of a pdf printed out and no cigar on that either.

Its the same code from Google googles. they merged the codes to Google search. I tried it once in a German bar.
tried searching the logo of a beer and the search returned what i was looking for.
