Say you’re in a place that you’re unfamiliar with and you want to find the nearest ATM, you can lift up your camera and search to instantly see the ATMs in the area. The Search with Live View feature lets you use your camera to find essential places like shops, ATMs and restaurants when you’re on the go. Google also announced that it’s expanding Search with Live View to more places in Europe in the coming months, including Barcelona, Madrid and Dublin. Glanceable directions can be used whenever you’re using the app, whether you’re walking, biking or taking public transit. Google notes that previously, this information was only visible by unlocking your phone, opening the app and using comprehensive navigation mode. If you decide to take another path, the app will update your trip automatically. Users will see updated ETAs and where to make your next turn. The feature lets you track your journey right from your route overview or lock screen. The company also announced that a new feature called “glanceable directions” is rolling out globally on Android and iOS in the coming months. All of this allows you to see if a bar’s moody lighting is the right vibe for a date night or if the views at a cafe make it the ideal spot for lunch with friends.” “With NeRF, we can accurately recreate the full context of a place including its lighting, the texture of materials and what’s in the background. “To create these true-to-life scenes, we use neural radiance fields (NeRF), an advanced AI technique, transforms ordinary pictures into 3D representations,” Google explained in a blog post. Immersive View can also show you nearby restaurants and allows you look inside them to see if they would be an ideal spot for you. You can also see what the area looks like at different times of the day and what the weather will be like. You can use Immersive View to virtually soar over the building to get a better idea of what it looks like and where the entrances are located. For instance, say you’re planning to visit the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and want to get an idea of it before you go. It also layers information on top of the digital model, such as details about the weather, traffic and how busy a location may be. The feature fuses billions of Street View and aerial images to create a digital model of the world.
