Project Astra is now integrated within the Gemini Live experience, allowing it to understand and explain the world around you, as seen through the camera lens.
At MWC 2025, Google confirmed that its experimental Project Astra assistant will roll out widely in March. It seems the feature has started reaching out to users, albeit in a phased manner, beginning with Android smartphones.
On Reddit, one user shared a demo video that shows a new “Share Screen With Live” option when the Gemini Assistant is summoned. Moreover, the Gemini Live interface also received two new options for live video and screen sharing.
Google has also confirmed to The Verge that the aforementioned features are now on the rollout trajectory. So far, Gemini has only been capable of contextual on-screen awareness courtesy of the “Ask about screen” feature. Project Astra is the future of Gemini AI
In case you aren’t familiar, Project Astra is the most futuristic iteration of an AI that can understand text, audio, picture, video, and live camera feed in real-time.
