Online maps are one of the killer applications for smartphones. To some extent, lost has no longer exist. But will the map no longer change? I don't think so.
Because of AR. The relationship between the AR and the map is not so great, perhaps the most is that the map is displayed on the AR glasses without having to look down at the phone frequently while searching for the way, but Google Tango has already let people see the potential of AR, map and navigation, even though Not the most important thing.
One of the earliest patents issued by Magic Leap was related to maps. The concept they displayed was a Passable World Model, which means that the data is connected. When using AR equipment for spatial mapping, data generated using SLAM (Instant Positioning and Map Construction) allows the device to sense its relative position in space. However, these data are stored locally, and the linked world model is to share this data with others, which can significantly reduce the reprocessing time.
Google Earth looks fine
On the other hand, this can greatly supplement the accuracy of the map. Google Maps, Google Earth, and Google Street View can now share user-uploaded data, but when you zoom in on the map, you'll find that the degree of ambiguity is high. AR and SLAM can build high-precision 3D models in your space. If millions of users reach millions, that will bring about amazing achievements: a virtual earth surface; a hyperscale multiplayer online game, but In a real environment.
But after zooming in, it's not great.
If the equipment is popularized, people will carry out SLAM almost at any time, which will result in a large number of new opportunities: check whether there is free parking space, check the congestion of a certain road, how the weather in a certain place is actually, and check out a store. Whether it is open for business, etc.... Even if we change the process of urbanization, if we can know the situation in another place at any time, why not choose to live in a place where house prices are lower, or if there is no smog?
