[QUOTE="Malika, post: 520951, member: 11227"] [B]Google Street Roo[/B] Google in Australia has launched Google Street Roo in an attempt to capture the Outback. "The cameras on our Street Roo collection team will be powered by solar panels stitched into the back pocket of custom-made roo jackets. Images will be wired to Google in real-time. A GPS tracker embedded into the jacket will match the location of the kangaroo to ensure the image is accurately uploaded onto the new Street View layer," says the team who've come up with the idea. "The deployment of the roo force will begin today and we believe 98% of the Australian outback will be captured on Google Maps within three years."
