Google Unveils Google Earth for 2010 Audi A8
Posted in: Google, gps, navigation, satellite, Today's Chili
Google announced that with the new Audi A8, Audi will be the first car manufacturer to build Google Earth services into a vehicle’s entertainment system.
The service gives drivers 3D satellite imagery, terrain information, and other geo data relevant to their current location. It also combines seamlessly with the car’s existing Audi navigation system. In addition, it lets drivers hook into Wikipedia for more location information, and displays Panoramio images for additional views.
The Audi A8 also gets Google Maps and Local Search for finding business listings. It connects into a desktop account; drivers can look something up on a PC, send the info to the car, and then navigate there. Pretty slick.
