Google is adding a new dimension to its digital mapping services. It is now possible to closely examine the places in the past and feel the atmosphere. Google Maps announced that some users will have access to Spatial Augmented Reality (AR) features. So what does this feature do? Here are all the details…
Revolutionary feature in Google Maps Spatial AR technology is now available
This new feature, introduced at Google I/O 2024, is called “Spatial Augmented Reality”. With this technology, the real world will become a digital world that you can walk around in. It will now be possible to go back in time. For example, in Paris and Singapore, users will be able to see the 1900 Paris World’s Fair and the Eiffel Tower at that time with AR.
This is not limited to historical monuments; in the future, we will also be able to see real-time information about restaurants, shops and public transportation. Google’s Spatial AR technology has the potential to revolutionize tourism and education.
Tourists will be able to experience historical sites and natural phenomena live with AR. Educators will be able to present interactive course materials to students. While this feature is currently limited to historical and natural sites, its use will expand in the future.
For example, directions can be shown with virtual arrows or information about surrounding buildings can be projected directly onto the screen. Google Maps aims to enrich the user experience by introducing new features with Spatial Augmented Reality (AR) technology. These innovations will not only make users’ lives easier, but also increase interaction and knowledge in daily life.
We can’t wait to try Google Maps Spatial AR features. If the feature is not available for you, it will be available in a few days. We will see how widespread this technology will become in the future and how it will change our lives. What do you think? You can write your opinions in the comments section below.
