Google Duo new application for encrypted video calls

At the Google I / O developer conference held in Mountain View, California, the company presented a new video call application called Duo or Google Duo. The new application was presented as a supplement to the Allo Allo message that was also presented at the same conference.

Google Duo calls are end-to-end encrypted, the manager said ς της Google Eric Kay. Αλλά το χαρακτηριστικό που κάνει το Duo να ξεχωρίζει περισσότερο από άλλες υπηρεσίες βιντεοκλήσεων που είναι φιλικές σε κινητές συσκευές (όπως το Skype, το Messenger, and Facebook's WhatsApp) not to mention Google Hangouts, is a feature called Knock Knock.

It's a "live video stream from the caller before you even pick up," Kay said. So you can "not only see who is calling you, but you get an idea from where and why they are calling you. A smile, a beach, or a newborn baby will appear to you in this moment, and making calls is and spontaneous."

Όπως και το Hangouts, οι κλήσεις βίντεο Duo λειτουργούν με WebRTC. Το Duo βασίζεται επίσης σε ένα αρκετά νέο πρωτόκολλο της Google που ονομάζεται QUIC (για "γρήγορες UDP στο Διαδίκτυο" ή “quick UDP Internet connections”), και μπορεί να εκτελέσει μια "απρόσκοπτη μεταπομπή" των κλήσεων μεταξύ Wi-Fi και συνδέσεων κινητής τηλεφωνίας, ανέφερε ο Kay.

Duo does not support calls between more than telephone lines.

The app will be available for Android and iOS this summer, according to Kay.
