Google has held its biggest event of the year, showing off everything that it's going to release through 2016. The general public and developers will get their first glimpse at the products and technology that's going to rule our lives – via our phone, home, car, computer and everything else.

Some of what will be announced has already leaked, and others have been spoiled by Google themselves in advance of the event. Those include rumours about a new device for the home and new technology for your phone, as well as Google's update to Android Pay that now allows it to be used in the UK.

But the main event is still set to be packed with surprises, including the first details of Google's own virtual reality headset and new phone technology. We'll be following along with all the developments live.
