Chromebook ‘Nautilus’ Will Usher In Video Recording For Chrome OS
Before we get down to business, let me address the masses who are questioning why the new Chromebook ‘Nautilus’ failed to make an appearance last week at CES.

Last month, Gabriel published a fantastic article outlining the reasons we are quite sure the upcoming detachable Chromebook only known at this point as ‘Nautilus’ is made by Samsung. Today, we have yet another really fun tidbit about Samsung’s latest foray into the Chromebook world.

Fresh off the heels of Google’s Pixelbook announcement, the wheels of the Chromium OS project continue to turn and development moves forward.

Contents Perhaps because I’ve become somewhat of a ‘power user’ on my Chromebook, I’ve started to see where many aspects of the user experience fall short.

Back in August of 2018, a few stories went around stating that Google was working on a facial recognition feature for Chromebooks and, to be perfectly honest, I couldn’t find any real evidence at the time pointing to anything beyond facial recognition for cameras. After all, modern mobile cameras use facial recognition all the time, […]
