In a little cross pollination, Apple unveils a set of Apple Maps updates designed, in part, to coincide with the release of its feature film Brad Pitt F1.
From this week, Apple Maps users can display F1 And the features linked to the Grand Prix in Monaco cards.
More than a decade after a memorable start, Apple Maps is now a rich and reliable navigation system that has seen many updates. Apple recently added walking directions guided by AR and detailed city experiences that add skins to monuments like Radio City Music Hall in New York and London Tower Bridge, as well as many details of the city.
Apple will use many of these updates to improve its Monaco cards for the next race for the Grand Prix, which takes place from May 23 to May 25.
Among the improvements linked to F1 and Grand Prix are visual updates that take advantage of the detailed city experience of Apple cards. These add a temporary traffic track, for example, as well as visualization stands, car garages and even formula 1 racing cars (they are small and not particularly detailed).
Apple also adds 3D updates to the Monaco monuments, including the Monte-Carlo casino, Fairmont Monte Carlo, Paris Monte-Carlo hotel and the F1 Paddock Club.
Certain elements of Monaco’s update will remain after the race, but the track, which includes markers for each of the 19 laps of the race, will disappear at the end of the Grand Prix. During the race race, Apple Maps will include real -time updates on detours and road closings relating to the race, as well as all the bridges built for spectators.
Call the big film
There will also be F1 The iconography relating to the film by Brad Pitt, which concerns a former pilot returning to the races. F1 Open internationally on June 25 and North America on June 27. As you may have guessed, it is an original Apple film and will eventually broadcast on Apple TV Plus. Apple Maps users will also find a new special guide on some of the pioneers presented in the next film.
This is not the first time that Apple has updated its Apple Maps experience for a special event; It even worked with Formula 1 before. For Formula 1 race from last year in Las Vegas, Apple added the track and the visualization stands to Apple cards, then removed all non -permanent structures after the race.
For all that Apple adds to apple cards for the Grand Prix and F1, we have noticed that there is no tiny Brad Pitt, unless it has been distant inside the Monaco card, and you are supposed to look for it as a game on the theme of the “Wer’s Waldo?” Breed films? “
