O Google Maps made available a new functionality with an immersive experience in augmented reality of main tourist attractions in Parisheadquarters city of 2024 Olympic Gamesin France.
When viewing the Eiffel Tower, for example, the user can travel back to the 1900s and remember the planned structure of the monument when it was built for the World’s Fair. According to the company, views of Notre-Dame Cathedral and the Tuileries Palace (before its demolition hundreds of years ago), all in the French capital, are also available.
Locations that have this type of view can be identified through Google Lens — an image recognition application activated through the device’s camera — or with Street View — a panoramic view feature.
To access the new feature while far away, simply search for the location in the search bar, select the Immersive Experience and authorize the information coming from Google Arts and Culture — if you want to travel back in time.
The company had launched 3D maps of Paris for devices with the iOs operating system for the Olympics. The visualization offers more information about game locations and the main tourist attractions in the French capital.
Based on important guides, the Maps application on the iOs operating system also offers directions to restaurants, hotels and shopping in Paris.
