Google Maps Updates Include Routes To Avoid Crashes

 Google announced new Google Maps updates, including tailored maps and suggesting routes that reduce the likelihood of a crash, during the Google I/O Keynote on Tuesday.

One of the most notable Maps updates Google announced is the ability to reduce drivers’ chances of having hard-braking moments along a route. In its blog post about the updates, Google said that the new feature is meant to minimize these hard-braking moments that can increase the likelihood of a car crash. 

To calculate these safer routes, Google said Maps identifies multiple route options to your destination based on factors like how many lanes a road has and how direct a route is. Google said it uses machine learning and navigation information to take the fastest routes and identify which one is most likely to reduce your chances of encountering one of these hard-braking moments while on the road. 

“We believe that these changes have the potential to eliminate 100 million hard-braking events in routes driven with Google Maps each year, so you can rely on Maps to get you from A to B quickly—but also more safely,” Google said in its blog post.

Apple plans redesigned AirPods for 2021, new AirPods Pro in 2022

 

Apple Inc is readying a revamp of its entry-level AirPods for this year and a second generation of the AirPods Pro for next year, according to people with knowledge of the matter.   

Apple Inc is readying a revamp of its entry-level AirPods for this year and a second generation of the AirPods Pro for next year, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The new base AirPods will mark the first update to the product since March 2019 and will add a new design that mostly mirrors that of the AirPods Pro. The earbuds will come with a new case and shorter stems poking out of the bottom of each one. The AirPods Pro coming next year will be the first change to that product since October 2019 and will include updated motion sensors with a focus on fitness tracking, the people said, asking not to be named because the plans are private.

Apple had previously aimed to release the new AirPods Pro as early as this year, Bloomberg News reported in 2020. The update to its wireless earbuds range will bolster the company’s wearables, home and accessories segment, which has grown rapidly to now account for more than $30 billion in annual revenue, exceeding 10% of total sales.

An Apple spokeswoman declined to comment. The last AirPods-related hardware introduction from Apple was the over-ear AirPods Max headphones in December. That $549 pair earned criticism for bugs and its high price but praise for its materials and sound. Apple only recently caught up with demand for the product, and it is not currently working on a second generation of the AirPods Max, though it has discussed launching additional color variations in the future.

As part of its broader home, audio and accessories strategy, Apple has also begun early development of a HomePod speaker with a built-in screen as well as a device that combines the features of a HomePod, FaceTime camera and Apple TV, Bloomberg News has reported. Competition for speakers with screens is already widespread. Apple released a HomePod mini speaker last year and outlined a minor update to the Apple TV set-top box last month.

For the new AirPods Pro, Apple has also tested a smaller design that eliminates the stems. That look will debut on new Beats-branded wireless earbuds planned to be announced next month.

 

Google Adds a New Button to Directly Save Images From Gmail to Google Photos

  

Gmail will now allow users to save photos sent as attachments directly to Google Photos with the new 'Save to Photos' button. However, the new feature is compatible only with pictures sent in the JPEG format for now and there is no information about when other formats will be supported by this new feature. This is a useful addition to Gmail by Google, especially since they removed the sync between Google Photos and Google Drive in 2019. Gmail users could earlier save any attachment directly to their Google Drive, which they can no longer use for saving photos and videos.

Google introduced the new feature through its Workspace blog. As mentioned, the new feature by Google allows Gmail users to save photo attachments directly to Google Photos using the new 'Save to Photo' button. The button co-exists with the 'Add to Drive' button on an attachment or while previewing it. Up until 2019, Google Drive and Google Photos were synced to work together but the search giant changed this in a bid for 'simplicity.'

The new feature reduces the need for users to download JPEG images and manually back them up on Google Photos. However, media in other image and video formats would still require to be manually uploaded to Google Photos for organising them in albums or backing them up on the cloud.

 

"This feature will be ON by default. For an eligible photo, you can choose the Save to Photos button which is alongside a similar option to Add to Drive," the blog reads. Google has also provided detailed information on how to upload files and folders to Google Drive on its support page.

The rollout of the 'Save to Photos' feature will be done gradually using the Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains. Users in the former domain will have started receiving the update from May 26, while users in the latter domain would start getting it a week later. Google says it can take up to 15 days for the feature to show up for all Gmail users.

Additionally, the feature will be available to all Workspace users as well as G Suite basic and business users. Users of personal Google Accounts will also receive the new 'Save to Photos' feature.

The next-gen update is rumoured to be codenamed Sun Valley and is expected to be released this fall. Nadella has teased that the new update will create more opportunities for developers and creators.

During the Build 2021 keynote, Nadella teased the arrival of a big Windows OS update very soon.
