搶食導航機大餅,Google Map增加車用導航模式

嗯,Google的狐狸尾巴露出一條了(如果Google是九尾的話).......

各家GPS導航廠商OS:通通給Google玩好啦(╯-_-)╯╧╧







Google推出Google Map新 的導航功能,請看清楚是 "導航" 喔,不是路徑規劃而已,就像車用GPS導航機一樣,地圖會隨著行進方向旋轉(turn-by-turn),也就是說,以後Google Map未來不是只有地圖查詢與路徑規劃等,要拿到腳踏車、機車與汽車上當GPS車機來用,也沒問題了。(Garmin、Mio、Tomtom等廠商:哭哭 ╰(〒皿〒)╯)

這個車用導航功能(Google Maps Navigation,暫稱)除了路徑規劃並導航外,也有語音輔助(女聲)、即時路況(台灣尚不支援)與重要景點POI資訊(加油站與餐廳),用起來幾乎 就像GPS車機,並且一樣可以像Google Map一樣,可以切換地圖模式與街景模式來導航(見圖庫),街景模式就像GPS車機廠商強調實景,但GPS車機只有在重要地點才支援,而且所謂 "實景顯示" ,仍是圖片,而街景模式則是真實世界的畫面。

另外,車用導航功能還支援語音搜尋,只是不知道即將推出的中文語音搜尋是否可以支援?當然,圖資與路徑規劃都是透過網路或行動網路來傳送,資料不會儲存在 手機上,而是透過雲端運算(又一個新應用!!!)來處理,這樣的好處,就是使用者就不需要動不動就要手動更新GPS車機裡的圖資,壞處就是裝置的網路要夠 快。

目前,Google Maps Navigation會先在Android 2.0上支援,當然未來其他裝置也能使用這項功能,在Android 2.0上則會有個全新界面來引導使用者來使用Google Maps Navigation,叫做 "Car Dock UI" (請看影片)。

當然,目前仍是beta階段,首先會受到衝擊的就是導航軟體廠商,並且會間接促使導航車機的降價,而這些導航機的硬體大廠,就要在人生的交叉路上作抉擇了。
