Porsche's miracle encountered at Apple Maps lookaround

Posted: Posted:

Apple Maps Major Update

I'm not an iPhone / iPad user, but I've come across an Apple Maps car that shoots streets for Apple Maps while driving the Porsche 911 Carrera.

"If Apple Maps Street View (a feature called Look Around) becomes available in Japan, then maybe my Porsche 911 will also be on Apple Maps !!"

I was looking forward to it.

Because the Apple car was right behind me like this. You would expect this ^^ ↓

And even though I was looking forward to it so much, I'm not an Apple user, so I don't usually touch Apple Maps, so well, high, yes, I didn't even notice that Apple Maps was updated ( Lol). It's no good.

… But, but! !!

To my great delight, in the comments to the blog

"From today, August 5th, you can see the street view of Apple Map in Japan too! Why don't you check it out? 』\

Someone told me (tears). Thank you ~! !! I'm really happy. Thank you. If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't have noticed it for a long time.

Apple Maps, which was significantly updated on August 5, 2020, and now has a look-around function. I can't help but confirm this anymore!

It is a confirmation to take the iPad from the child who is using the iPad at home.

* The image from here is a screenshot of what is displayed on the Apple map as it is, and since it has already been opened to the public by Apple, hide the place and surrounding scenery etc. here as well. I haven't.

Check if your Porsche 911 is on Apple Maps

Visit Apple Maps to see where you encountered the Apple Maps car.

I will write it because you can see it by looking at the map, but Tokyo is around Kamiyacho. Where is my Porsche? Are you there?

Oh, somehow a nice car is parked! … But it's not Porsche.

Going further, Oh, Porsche! !!

However, this is Panamera no matter how you look at it. No ... Not mine.

Then, when I looked sideways, oh! !! !! Carrera! !! I was there!

No, but it seems that the road on that side wasn't running? I thought, and when I looked closely, it wasn't my Carrera.

Encounter with the black Porsche 911 GT3

"After all, I didn't shoot when I was near my car ~", I was a little disappointed, but when I finally went a little further, oh? Doesn't it look like Porsche, the car you see in front of you?

I'll take a closer look.

No, Apple Maps, get closer! While thinking, tap and tap the screen. Have an Apple Maps car stop by.

And here is the image that will be the closest to the car in front ↓

Hmmm this is! Isn't it Porsche 911 GT3 (991.1)? Moreover, it is a pitch black specification.

I met the black 991.2 GT3 that inspired me to buy a GT3It's close to that, and this time I'll meet the pitch black GT3 again in Apple Maps.

I couldn't find my own Carrera this time, but it's a miracle to find my own Carrera and meet the Black GT3.

And when I look at it again like this, it is understandable that I will meet Porsche in the city while driving normally ^ ^ How long will Porsche run in just a few tens of meters.

It was fun just looking at the Apple Maps. But when I tapped too much and ran around faster and faster, I got drunk on Apple Maps (laughs).

Look around function, beautiful and fun

If you can see the look-around function of Apple Maps and have never tried it, please take a look (iOS version 13 or above is required).

Anyway, the image was very beautiful and touching.

Also, just by tapping the direction you want to go, if you tap far away, it will fly like running to that point at once, and it was fun enough to play for a while (dark play?).

Yes, and as you can see if you actually touch it, I think that it is made by combining images taken over many times.

The image that you see at the moment you pass a certain place and the image that you see when you look sideways from there are different, or if you go one step further, the image is different (they are combined), which is a really amazing technology.

I wonder if my Carrera was erased in the space-time gap while combining the images taken many times ... ^^

I have encountered Google Maps cars many times in various places, so I would like to find time again and go on a journey to find my Porsche on Google Maps.
