Facing the increasingly fierce competition from Apple maps and its 3D city view, Google today launched its vision for the next generation of Google maps, previewing its new and more "immersive" viewing experience This improvement proposed in the keynote speech of Google I / O 2022 conference uses the combination of computer vision and artificial intelligence technology to integrate street view and aerial images to provide a digital model of the world and a new way to explore cities, major landmarks, restaurants, places and other places of interest.
Google said it had fused "billions" of images to create this immersive view, enabling users to explore an area and see what it might look like through visual flight. You can use this exciting local clock or building to better understand your local life experience, such as Westminster. Users can also use the "time slider" to adjust how the region looks at different times of the day - a function somewhat similar to Apple The night mode of the map activates moonlight at dusk, even when browsing 3D cities.
Google's immersive model will also allow users to query local weather and traffic conditions to help plan. This new model will not just stop at presenting major cities in a more immersive perspective - it will also make it easier for people to explore internal places, including nearby restaurants and other popular places.
Users will be able to slide to the street level and click to see the inside of where they may want to go. This can help people find out what kind of atmosphere a restaurant may have, and so on. From this floor, you can also see the on-site busy degree and nearby traffic conditions in the area.
