How Google 3D Technology Will Change the Future

Google has become a name that is associated with innovation, and the way that this internet giant has begun to embrace 3D technology implies that this really could be the next big thing. Google has been investigating a number of different ways in which 3D technology can be incorporated into its other services, with the use of 3D mapping in Google Earth being particularly innovative.

Google Earth is one of those applications that really grasped the imagination when it was first released. It enabled people to explore the world in a new way, which Google users found to be just as exciting as it was informative. As soon as it was released, people were using the program to gain a new perspective on the world, and even on their own neighborhoods, rather than simply as a normal map or a useful navigational tool.

Today, Google Earth has changed a lot. One of the most interesting recent changes to take place on the virtual map is the sprouting of trees around the three-dimensional streets. Google has been making use of 3D imaging in the program for some time, but it has never previously attained such a lifelike representation of the world. This new direction for Google Earth points towards the recent improvements in 3D technology. When Google Earth first started, it would not have been possible to create these lifelike green trees in 3D. Google Earth was, therefore, left empty and barren, until now.

The creation of more realistic 3D images and the incorporation of innovative new 3D technology into applications such as Google Earth is just one branch of Google's exploration of the third dimension. Google has also been bringing 3D to the screens of mobile devices, which may prove to be one of the most influential developments in 3D technology.

The appearance of 3D images on mobile devices could have a significant impact on how these devices are used in the future. Google's exploitation of 3D mobile technology may inspire other companies to make their own forays into 3D technology, particularly as the reception of Google's 3D technology for mobile devices has been so favorable.

In fact, Google Earth in its newly enhanced 3D form, seems made for mobile touchscreen devices. Google has recently enabled the use of the program on the iPad, enabling easier exploration of its 3D imagery than is possible even on the original desktop version of the application. The new iPad version makes it feel as if the program had been created with the iPad in mind, despite having predated its conception by many years. The incorporation of Street View enables you to zoom in and walk around the 3D streets, getting a new perspective on the world of Google Earth.

Google has been creating practical and functional uses for the 3D technology that has elsewhere seemed simply like a gimmick. Exploring the world on Google Earth is almost like strolling down the street in real life. The new 3D trees make the Google Earth world more pleasant and more realistic, while the ability to access this world through mobile devices make this 3D technology easier to use and navigate, and far more practical as a useful tool rather than just a virtual version of the world to explore.
