Google develops social distance AR tool
Google has developed its ‘Sodar’ augmented reality (AR) tool to help visualise social distancing restrictions using Android phones as the world begins to adjust to a ‘new normal’ with Covid-19.

By using the camera on
Androids, the Sodar tool visualises a
two metre radius ring around the
user, allowing Android users to adjust
to a new normal and safely
visualise a distance from other people. 


The Sodar tool is available through
the Google Sodar website and only
works via Chrome on Android devices.
