Google has plenty of hush-hush projects at one time, most recently there was the barge in San Francisco Bay, which has had some questions answered recently. Then there is the robotics project,
could it be household robot maids, delivery drivers, or simply new
manufacturing systems? Whatever it is they are working on in that
warehouse, they are eating up everything in sight. Google has acquired
smaller tech companies, quietly, as well as bigger tech companies like Boston Dynamics, and now, they have taken another member of the Android team.
Romain Guy is a very popular Android engineer, we are used to seeing him at Google I/O and as a user on an Android subreddit.
That very same subreddit is where he made the announcement, or random
comment, that he has made the move, and followed fellow Android team
member and creator, Andy Rubin.I’m glad you like my photos. “I am working on Andy’s new project indeed.”
is all Guy had to say. In fact, the comment came from a topic of
wallpapers, so it couldn’t have been more random. Though it is pretty
big news, and is now being treated as such. The move made by Romain Guy,
is one that just makes sense. Guy has been with Google since 2007,
being one of the top software engineers, and having a masters in
computer science. Guy is one of the picture perfect employees for
Google, and we are all excited to see what they bring out of those
warehouses.
The
project has piqued a lot of interests around the world, wondering
exactly what is going on in there, though little has been said. Rubin
has only made comments about manufacturing and logistics, but the
interweb is a crazy place, with high hopes for something bigger and
better. Robots who deliver packages has been brought up, with the use of
the Google self driving car. No matter what Google says they are doing
with the project, people will speculate, until the day we get an
official launch.
