Explore New Horizons with Augmented Reality in Google Maps
Augmented Reality Arrives in Google Maps
Get ready to experience your surroundings in a whole new way! Google Maps is introducing augmented reality (AR) to make exploring and finding what you need easier and more immersive.
Time Travel with AR
This summer, Google Maps will launch an awe-inspiring feature in Paris that transports you back in time. Using AR, you can witness the city's rich history firsthand, taking a virtual stroll through its cobblestone streets.
Explore from Anywhere
Whether you're physically present or miles away, you can access AR content in Google Maps. With the Lens in Maps technology, you can view landmarks, businesses, and street views as if you were there.
Effortless Navigation
Lens in Maps, formerly known as Search with Live View, leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality to provide instant information when you need it most. Point your phone's camera at your surroundings to identify landmarks, find nearby businesses, and get accurate driving directions.
