Qualcomm says the all future 600 and 800 (820) series SoCs will be Tango-capable

Google's project Tango is among the company's most ambitious tech endeavors of late. And with the first Tango end user device, the Lenovo Phab2 Pro(652 soc), already a reality, Google and its hardware partner - Qualcomm are naturally planning for the future.TheLenovo smartphone and is thus the company's first Tango-capable chipset on the market. Today, Qualcomm announced that all future Snapdragon 600 and 800 series chips will also have Tango support. 

All of the Tango sensors, including gyroscope, accelerometer and a total of three cameras - a conventional one, a fisheye one for motion tracking and a depth sensing one,highly accurate integrated global high-frequency clock, crucial for properly timestamping the captured data for smooth playback.

If you are not exactly sure what Project Tango is, or how it can be of use to you, here's the quick rundown. It boils down to accurate spacial awareness on a mobile device, which allows it to 3D map its environment and also navigate around it precisely, indoors, without technologies like GPS, among other things. Theoretical implications for Tango are numerous and quite varied, to say the least, which is why the technology could hold great promise for the future.
