Google has launched a beta version of its augmented reality walking directions feature for Google Maps. This is a broader launch that will be available to all iOS and Android devices that have system-level support for AR. This means it is ARKit- compatible devices on iOS and Android. This also means that smartphones that support Google’s ARcore unless and until it is the Street View is available wherever you are.

Google-Maps-AR-mode

Google Map’s augmented reality innovation has been open in early alpha mode to both Google Pixel users and Google Maps Local Guides. But now it will be rolling out to everyone. Looking at some of the features available with the early version in March, and it appears like the version today should be much similar. It would have the same ability to just pat on any location nearby in Maps, tap the “Directions” button and then navigating to “Walking,” then clicking “Live View” which you can find at the bottom of the screen.

The Live View feature is not created with the purpose that one will hold up the phone regularly as you walk. Rather, it grants fast, easy and super-useful adjustment by displaying the signs and big, simple street markers superimposed on the real scene in front of you.

The best thing about Live View is it tells which direction a person should head next by displaying massive arrows and direction overlays on your screen. Due to this feature, it becomes easier for the person while navigating an unfamiliar area. That gives the provision of very much comfortable to familiarize yourself in unusual environments. This is hugely advantageous when traveling in an unknown region.

Google Maps is also getting several extra upgrades which include a one-stop “Reservations” tab in Maps for all the stored flights, hotel stays and much more. At the same time, it is backed up offline. This, and a newly redesigned Timeline. The timeline is airing on Android devices just for a few days. This will also be rolling out for everyone to use over the next few weeks.

This new augmented reality (AR) walking paths, which are known presently as Google Maps Live View, are made available by Google to a much broader range of Android phones and the iPhone presently. The directions are overlaid right on the top of the camera view to make the building and destinations visible faster.

Here is how you can test out the Live View feature:

  • Search for a place you want to walk to or tap it on the map
  • Click on the directions button at the bottom
  • Select walking directions present at the top of your mobile screen
  • Tap on the new Live View choice at the bottom of your mobile screen

The new Google Maps Live View feature is a component of more important updates to Google’s mapping service. Google aims o be the place you plan your trips from start to finish. And they are upgrading Travel and Maps to be the same. They are adding more features that can help the travelers to plan their trips.

Augmented Reality is the technology which had caught our fancy like no other technology earlier. This technology is often bestowed as futuristic technology. It has changed from being a science concept to be a science-based reality. AR has grown from customer space and corporate space equally. There has been a time when the cost of augmented reality was so much that the designers could only daydream of working on design projects that are included in it. But now the scenario has changed and the technology is available on mobile phones as well.

According to the specialists, the AR market could be rising to £122 billion by 2024 to mix the reality with fantasies in images. There are some more hurdles in AR that are yet to settle. But with the developments like how Google has brought in the Live View feature, the scope of AR technology can be seen touching new heights in the market.

The technology experts anticipate to see the most progress in the healthcare industry because of augmented reality technology. The travel industry is assumed to boom as 84% of customers worldwide. There are 42% people believe that AR is the tomorrow of tourism. The future will belong to AR when it comes to advancing the task performance or the quality of the output of an experience for the customer. Mobile phones will see the most change due to this technology as it will provide the opportunities to magnify the user experience beyond measurement.

Say or hear Augmented Reality, and you imagine yourself sneaking through the doors in search of the Pokemon characters while playing the famous Pokemon Go game. Yes, it definitely got us more hooked to the phone and improved our version of virtual with a pint of reality.

For the past two years, if you have been following the mobile app trends clearly, you would see that AR tops the list. Augmented Reality will not only improve the mobile app experience, but also enhance how we view mobility in general, and how consumers view virtual and reality.

Augmented Reality apps will improve the performance and services of many industries. For instance, the retail industry thrives on trying on before buying. This is not possible online, which is why several people have to return the clothes they buy online. But, this can stop with a little nudge from AR. The integration of this technology can allow you to check how the clothes would appear on your body size, and whether or not it will fit properly. This will help you with your buying decision.

Here are some of the industries that will be disrupted by Augmented Reality.

Industries Disrupted by AR

  • Retail:

     
    Retail will be the first industry to be disrupted with the application of Augmented Reality. IKEA Place App is already making provisions for the same. Before buying the furniture, you can check virtually, how the particular piece of furniture will appear in the room. The makeup industry can also benefit from this application. You will know which lipstick or nail paint looks good on you, as you can try it through the AR app.

  • Education:

     
    Yes, this is one industry that will benefit hugely from AR application. It will help them grasp the concepts and even improve the level of interactivity within the classrooms.

  • Real Estate:

     
    Taking a tour of the grounds before applying for the loan and buying the property is now possible virtually with the help of AR apps. You can get a 3D view of the properties and the estates with the help of AR. Augmented reality for business in the real estate industry works to the t in capturing the consumers and driving conversions.

  • Media and Entertainment:

     
    Snapchat is an apt example of how AR is leading to entertainment. There are many apps with filters that intend to entertain you and engage you.

  • Healthcare:

     
    Knowing what is troubling you and identifying the cure has become easy for those without a hospital nearby. The AR applications help you connect with the doctor, and take them into your pains virtually, thus allowing them to help you from a distance.

  • Manufacturer:

     
    Helping you with detailed assembly and easing the production, AR seems to be assisting the manufacturing industry. They also help with quality assurance

How AR Helps?

AR mobile apps help businesses succeed in many ways. Here we will discuss the major AR benefits with mobile apps.

  • If you want to market your product to the consumers, you need to pose your business with some attractive content. This is possible with the help of Augmented Reality. It helps you give a virtual form of reality in the form of content to entice the consumers.
  • Interactive and entertaining products will compel the users to spend some time on your platform, thus increasing conversions. The end result is profitable for your business.
  • You can improve the visibility and brand authority for your business. You can even bring the offerings, no longer at the top of the minds of the business owners, to limelight with AR.
  • You can reach the defined target audience with the help of AR apps. The younger audience are more connected with AR than the other segments.

Choosing the SDK for AR App Development

Now that you know why and how AR helps in mobile apps, it is time to choose the SDK to be able to develop the perfect AR app.

  •  Start with choosing the SDK that does not come with any licensing complications. Choose one that is free to use. This will help you lower the cost of development. Make sure, even when you are choosing the paid ones, they are easy on the subscription fee.
  • The AR SDKs should ideally support the platform you are building the app for or, at least offer cross-platform compliance. There is the ARKit 2.0 available with iOS, which allows you to create AR solutions for iOS. If you want to develop for both platforms, then the SDK choice should be made accordingly.
  • If you are planning on developing a marker-based app, then you need to get the cloud service support as well. This will reduce the size of the apps. However, if the apps are not going to use a lot of markers then you can develop an application that works offline as well.
  • Geolocation support needs to be extended to apps that are location-based or integrate the maps. Pokemon Go, one of the best-augmented reality apps, is an excellent example of how geolocation is important for AR apps.

When choosing the SDK, make sure you check that it supports 3D tracking as well as smart glasses.

Summing up

The market is flooded with tools that can support you with AR app development. You will need to choose one that befits your needs and has proper documentation.
