Google Maps launches AI-powered live lane guidance for safer driving
The new AI feature analyses road markings and integrates with Google Maps to provide precise, dynamic navigation starting with Polestar 4 vehicles.
Google has introduced AI-powered live lane guidance for cars with Google built in, marking a significant step toward intelligent in-vehicle navigation.
A new feature that enables Google Maps to interpret roads and lanes like a driver, offering real-time audio and visual cues to help motorists make timely lane changes and avoid missed exits.
Using AI that analyses lane markings and road signs through the vehicle’s front-facing camera, Google Maps integrates the live data with its navigation system, used by over two billion people monthly. The result is more accurate guidance alongside existing traffic, ETA, and hazard updates.
The feature will debut in Polestar 4 vehicles in the US and Sweden, with plans to expand across more models and road types in collaboration with major automakers.
