"Google Navigation": kostenlose Turn-by-Turn-Navigation mit "Android 2"

Der Suchmaschinengigant hat jetzt eine kostenlose Beta-Software für "Android 2.0" Handys basierend auf "Google Maps" vorgestellt, welche die Navigation (derzeit allerdings nur in den USA) ermöglicht, inklusive Sprachsteuerung, Sprachansagen, Freitextsuche, Street View, Live-Satellitenbild, Live-Verkehrsinformationen. Alle Daten bezieht die Software über das Internet von Google-Servern. Natürlich benötigt diese Lösung eine ständige Daten-Verbindung und ist daher im Ausland wenig praktikabel. Die Demo jedenfalls sieht ziemlich beeindruckend aus. Screen2.0 bietet alle Hintergrundinformationen.







  • Search in plain English (watch video). No need to know the address. You can type a business name or even a kind of a business, just like you would on Google.

    Hier die Features (Herstellerangaben in englisch, mit Links zu den Demo-Videos):
    • Search by voice (watch video). Speak your destination instead of typing (English only): "Navigate to the de Young Museum in San Francisco".
    • Traffic view (watch video). An on-screen indicator glows green, yellow, or red based on the current traffic conditions along your route. A single touch toggles a traffic view which shows the traffic ahead of you.
    • Search along route (watch video). Search for any kind of business along your route, or turn on popular layers such as gas stations, restaurants, or parking.
    • Satellite view (watch video). View your route overlaid on 3D satellite views with Google's high-resolution aerial imagery.
    • Street View (watch video). Visualize turns overlaid on Google's Street View imagery. Navigation automatically switches to Street View as you approach your destination.
    • Car dock mode (watch video). For certain devices, placing your phone in a car dock activates a special mode that makes it easy to use your device at arm's length.
