Google on Tuesday announced several new features that are coming to Google Maps. The coolest one will help you find your way through indoor spaces like airports, malls and train stations using augmented reality.
The updated Live View AR feature, which overlays digital guides on top of the real world to provide directions as you look through your phone’s display, now works indoors. So, say you’re in an airport and need to find your gate or an ATM. You search for what you’re looking for in Google Maps and markers will guide you with arrows and other digital markers.
