• People can use Google to assist them read illegible doctor's prescriptions.
• Users will be able to access the new feature using Google Lens.
• When this feature will be available to everyone has not yet been specified by the company.

At an event today, Google announced a variety of services that would be available to Indian consumers. Many new search-related features, improved Google Pay security, and other improvements are among them. The company also wants to help people understand poorly written doctor prescriptions. 

The dominant search engine said that machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) will enable people to recognise and highlight drugs in handwritten prescriptions (ML). Google Lens will be used by users to access the new functionality. The only requirement will be to take a picture of the prescription and upload it to the photo library. Once finished, the app can identify an image of a prescription and provide details on the drugs listed.

Google says that no choice will be made simply on the basis of the data its technology produces. According to the search engine juggernaut, 'this will serve as a helpful technology for digitising handwritten medical papers by enhancing the humans in the loop, such as pharmacists.' 

The corporation has not yet made clear when this feature would be accessible to everyone. To help people comprehend medications better, Google claims to be working with pharmacists. We should get more clarification on this over the coming weeks. According to Google, Indians are the main users of Google Lens across the board. This might have encouraged the company to offer additional AI solutions to users for more ease.

Additionally, Google Pay now has enhanced security features including multi-layered intelligent warnings that will inform users if the company's fraud detection system detects any suspicious behaviour. In addition, Google disclosed a collaboration with the National eGovernment Division (NeGD) that would make it easier for Indians to access their legal digital papers using the Files by Google app for Android.

With the introduction of Multisearch, Google also improves visual search by allowing users to simultaneously search for information using text and images. In India, multisearch is available in English and will eventually be made available in additional Indian languages, starting with Hindi over the course of the following year.
