दुनिया की प्रमुख सर्च इंजन कंपनी गूगल ने अपने मैप्स पर 'लेन गाइडेंस' फीचर शुरू किया है. गूगल का यह नया फीचर वाहन चालकों को ‘वॉयस गाइडेड’ संकेत देगा कि उन्हें किस लेन में रहना चाहिए या जाना चाहिए।
Apart from 20 cities - Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhopal, Chandigarh, Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Indore, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, Mysore, Nagpur, Pune, Surat, Thiruvananthapuram, Vadodara and Visakhapatnam - the lane guidance will also work for major Indian expressways, including the Mumbai-Pune expressway, said company.
Google also announced that from Thursday, drivers in India can enjoy the turn-by-turn, voice-guided instructions in English as well as Hindi. Hindi speakers can choose to set Hindi as their preferred language by selecting the Hindi option from Settings>Language and input. Users can also choose English (India) language preference to hear voice-guided instructions in the Indian accent.
