The most prominent feature of the upcoming Googlebook computers will be the Smart Cursor, which activates the Gemini artificial intelligence assistant by simply moving the control mouse pointer on the screen quickly from one side to the other. A pop-up window will appear to the user offering advice and additional functions depending on the item on the screen. For example, when the cursor is passed over an image, the system suggests creating new content inspired by it, or provides the user with information about it.
The artificial intelligence present in these computers also helps in creating customized icons and shortcuts for the operating interface (widgets), as Gemini relies on multiple sources, including the Internet, and Google applications such as Calendar and email, in addition to direct directions from the user to create them. Simply put, the device owner can explain in words the shape of the icon or shortcut window that he wants, and the system creates it immediately.
Googlebook computers and their operating interfaces integrate perfectly with devices running the modern “Android-16” systems, as the computer owner can run applications on his computer by downloading them from the Googlebook online store or through his phone paired with the computer, and deal with the files on his computer or phone easily.
It is expected that the first Googlebook devices will be unveiled in the fall of 2026, as Google is working on manufacturing them in cooperation with several companies such as ASUS, Acer, Dell, HP, and Lenovo. All of these devices will feature structures made of high-quality materials, and will contain the Glowbar that previously appeared in Pixel C computers. (Russia Today)
