 Google has introduced the historical street view feature for its mobile app to commemorate Street View's first anniversary. On addition, users will now have access to a new camera in Google Maps. The firm has developed an iconic Street View feature for Android and iOS with over 220 billion photographs in over 100 countries and territories. Users have awaited this mobile device capability for quite some time.

The corporation provided details in the blog post.

Google said in a blog post that numerous new features would be introduced to celebrate the 15th anniversary of street view. With the enhancements to Street View, Android and iOS users will be able to view historical street view photographs from many years ago. When viewing street view imagery of a location, users will be able to touch anywhere on the picture to get location details.

Last year, Google discontinued support for several of its applications, including Google Maps, for outdated handsets. If you wish to use Google Maps on an older phone, it must have at least Android 3.0 Honeycomb.

You will be able to see historical map pictures.

After accessing Google Map, the first step is to navigate to the place where Street View has been enabled. Now, after launching street view, you must touch on a portion of the photos shown in front of you for location data to appear on the screen. Following this, viewers will be able to choose the date of their choosing to see historical pictures. Since the feature's debut in 2007, the photographs to date will be shown on it.

Google introduces a new camera for gathering Street View data.

The business has developed a new portable camera to conveniently capture additional Street View-related data. This will be used to take high-quality photographs of the Amazon rainforest and other highly inhabited areas. The new camera is anticipated to weigh less than 15 pounds and include a design that is compatible and portable. According to Google, this camera is the size of a cat and will be released next year.

Details about lane markers and interruptions

The new Street View camera will be fitted to Google's current street view fleet and trekker backpacks. This allows for the collection of high-quality picture data of isolated islands and other areas. In addition to the statistics, information on lane marking and roadblocks will also be provided. Google also gives customers the opportunity to modify the icon that represents their vehicle's position in navigation mode. Simultaneously, the Pegman icon on the desktop may be seen donning a birthday hat.

Recent days have seen the introduction of an immersive view function.

Recent updates to Google Maps include the immersive view function, which allows users to see a place more clearly. Using computer vision and AI, this function generates a digital representation of the globe consisting of street view and aerial photos. The new camera will also gather data for this purpose, since it can be connected to any vehicle, has a modular design with adjustable settings, and can be controlled remotely.

पुल जो छोड़ गया हमारा साथ, कानपुर की पहचान

By Ankit Awasthi
  पिछले दिनों कानपुर का 150 साल पुराना गंगापुल टूट गया। इस पुल पर से कई बार गुजरे हैं। अनेक यादें जुड़ी हैं। पुल गिरने की खबर मिलने पर देखने गए पुल। शहर होते हुए घर से दूरी 15 किलोमीटर। गंगाबैराज की तरफ़ से जाते तो दूरी 23 किलोमीटर दिखा रहा था। समय लगभग बराबर। शहर होते हुए गए। जहां से पुल शुरू होता है वहीं पर गाड़ी सड़क किनारे ही खड़ी कर दी। रेती में पुल के नीचे -नीचे चलते हुए उस हिस्से की तरफ़ गए जो हिस्सा टूटा था।  पुल का टूटा हुआ हिस्सा नदी के पानी में धराशायी सा लेटा  था। क्या पता वह गाना भी गा रहा हो -'कर चले हम फ़िदा जान-ओ-तन साथियों, अब तुम्हारे हवाले ये जगह साथियों।' पुल के आसपास पक्षी तेज आवाज़ में चहचहाते हुए शायद पुल के बारे में ही चर्चा कर रहे थे। एक दूधिया अपने दूध के कनस्तर पानी में धोकर रेती में औंधाए रखकर गंगा स्नान कर रहा था। स्नान करके नदी से निकलते हुए एक बुजुर्ग को नदी किनारे निपटते देखकर भुनभुनाते हुए कहने लगा -' यह भी नही कि गंगाजी से ज़रा दूर होकर निपटें। एकदम किनारे ही गंदगी करने बैठ गए।' उसके भुनभुनाने के अन्दाज़ से लग रहा था कि उसकी मंशा केवल ख...
