San Francisco: Google Maps has announced new improvements that would help people with vision impairment to navigate more easily.
###
It would offer more detailed voice guidance and new types of verbal announcements for walking trips, said Wakana Sugiyama, a business analyst in Google’s Tokyo office who was an adviser and tester for the project on Thursday.

“Frequent updates like these not only help a visually impaired person get from A to B, they can also give us more confidence and reassurance when we travel alone,” she added.
###
Currently, it is available in English in the US and Japanese in Japan for Google Maps on Android and iOS. The feature is for visually-impaired people.
###
The feature could be very helpful for those who wanted a more screen-free experience on their next walking trip.
