The 3D version of Google Street View is probably not a joke

In April 1 this year, Google released a red-blue 3D street view. Using vintage red-blue 3D glasses, you can see a more realistic street view. Although this is a new feature released in April 1, it is still usable. At the same time, Google Books, the 3D version released, has now been taken offline. Does this mean that 3D street view may be the same as Gmail, which was released six years ago in April 1?

If Google can use the distance between a streetscape car and a building for three-dimensional imaging, it can create a more realistic 3D street view. Barry Hunter pointed out that Google uses lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) technology to calculate 3D street view images, which also explains why the current 3D street view accuracy is not very high.

If you do not see 3D street view on the day of the Fool's Day, you still have the opportunity to watch it. If you do not have red and blue glasses, you may wish to buy one. The 3D street view does not seem to be deprecated soon and will be permanently retained and made better.
