I had to google this because today was the first time I experienced this with VR and WOW!!!!!!!!!! I had NO IDEA that technology had advanced this far! At one point I looked from above Earth and I swooshed down and my stomached just dropped and I had to slow down. I fount my house and WOW!!! Its just a WHOLE NEW perspective on life. Its like we are all living on this planet and we are so tiny but I realized that even though we are tiny, we can create strong and powerful effects that can ripple across the world!
Bruh, this app is 7 years old..........
So according to your conspiracy theory how many years have to pass after it’s no longer impressive? @@evolicious
@@KeithAvila Where TF is the "conspiracy theory"? lmfao.
FYI, this app is long abandoned by Google 5 years ago. It's literally abandonware. Google didn't think it was impressive 5 years ago either. Too bad, this app had potential.
we need something like this for the night sky
Roflll Koptrrr I'm using Sky View actually ! But in VR it would be something different ! I'll check this one out though... thanks !
Go outside
Kartpal Well outside is good but come on !! really ? outside ? xD
Elite Dangerous on Rift or Vive?
SpaceEngine? ..not sure if they've implemented vr yet, but they were planning on doing so.
I like google earth VR, i can walk around Chicago without getting shot.
So this is what it feels like to be on Earth after arriving from Krypton.

erm. what about daydream vr? you know, your own virtual reality platform?
Marksy72 day dream vr headset is for your phone... this is the next level, true vr. there's only so much a phone can do before it can't process fast enough...
Marksy72 LOL dumb comment
But the remote in the video is clearly the Daydream controller, so maybe?
I'm pretty sure a phone can't handle these graphics+motion detection at the same time now.. maybe in like 5-10 years..
Marksy72 I'm not imarkseyyy that's for sure.
If there is any one app that must be experienced in VR its Google earth VR. If you already like Google Earth in general , then get ready to have your socks blown off, as you transported inside that virtual world full immersive presence. Its insane. More over they mixed the virtual world along side the real world via photogrammetry satellite data capture, and full on photography street view. so you can travel places you now virtually and then switch to the real imagery if so desired. Its so cool visiting the places you already know quite well, as it enables you to accurately judge just how well their process has achieved. you feel like your transported back into that environment. Often you will find low res geometry capture, but it matters little when overall you get that sense that scale and proportions are indeed accurate to that of the real world. i cant imagine what the future will hold, cameras around the world not just capturing regular imagery but also lidar data. in truth one could see this extending to real times data streams. It already exists but not for consumer level access. LEts not forget Google earth itself use to be Keyhole, for the military.
This looks amazing... now I just need to save $800 for an HTC Vive.

you never built a pc, did you?
Bendie what a dumb question, of course I did but ya know not all people know about PC's and processors, video cards, graphics cards and how to build them
I have built many. And no, it's not complicated, difficult or time consuming. Beats the pants off of consoles too.
Trolololol. Be silent, console peasant.
Imagine if this turned into the basis for some sort of Metaverse. That could be amazing!

This was only a matter of time. Google Earth and VR are a natural match. Eventually we’ll be able to experience the entire planet via VR 60 or 90 fps. Love it.
Eventually? It's already the whole planet in 90 fps.

This is why I love Google, they know the htc vive is gonna be the best way to experience this so far, so they display that instead of the cardboard. its other things like their version of skype being available on iphones etc
BenAddict19 Skype is not a Google product
" their *version* of skype "
I have a feeling that this sort of thing could be addictive. Spend a few hours having complete freedom to see the world in any way you choose only to go back to taking 1 step at a time. In some sense it reminds me of inception.....getting lost in a dream because its just that much better.

just got my vr headset this is one of the first things im
going to try
Now tell us how much it isn't anything like this BS promo video, but an eiree, weird low resolution N64 quality visuals.
Would've been cooler as a 360° video
Andrew Blain
Harder to make though.
Then again, you could see the full 360° version of the video and more on Google Earth VR haha
for google? lmao
No, then it would've been in a lower fps and a lot lower quality.
Did you ever actually try turning on the 3D city models in Earth? It takes a really long time to load the textures.
Matojeje just use internet explorer solves all my problems
This may be the first time in history anyone has ever used that sentence. I'll have to check with Guinness
.
Guinness responds: "Yes this is the first time, without shame and in public at least"
Lads why the hate internet explorer is bae
Could we just check if "Internet Explorer" and "Bae" has been used unironically as well?
please please release a version for quest!!!
You can connect your quest to your pc but it has to be decent to work and you need a cable
it would be cool if there were like "monuments" or like little info boxes integrated in the map that you could turn on and off so like you could be looking around some where and ask, like oh whats this mountain, or whats this building, or whats the significance of this rail road and a Wikipedia article or something could pop up. Sort of like a guided tour of the entire earth in VR
take my money Google.... just take it all
It's free :3
David Chien if that's what you think...
Michael Perez It actually is free on steam right now.
Zaphero it may not cost money, but everything comes with a price.
Michael Perez VR headset or corporate maneuvering?
How did they get such detailed 3d models of cities and mountains?
Sam Dante the use satellite images in perspective to make a 3d model...
José Flandul I cant believe it, I do use drone for modeling 3D and you dont get so clear pictures,there must be another way
well, the satellites use 125 megapixels cameras or more... a normal camera have around 8 megapixels.
I know my reply is incredibly late, but I just saw this comment and had to correct the answer. That's not how it happens. Check this out: ruclips.net/video/suo_aUTUpps/видео.html
They use a mix of aircraft and Satelites, aircraft take lots of photos that can be stitched into 3D, that’s why you can’t find many airports with 3D render as the camera plane can’t fly over it. They then also use satellite for much larger remote areas such as mountains of China
It is really such a shame that this app has received no updates in so long. You need to release this as open source so the community can continue to update and improve the experience. So many simple features I would love to see. C'mon, you open sourced tilt brush ...

@@kylepope6805 they have at least allowed Google Earth data to be used via API, so really anyone could create their own version of this. It would be pretty expensive to host, though. Still, such a shame that Google not only let this killer app waste away collecting dust, they abandoned pretty much anything good they were doing in the VR space.
@davethenerd42 Google is evil. They only care about money. It's why they are having massive braindrain. Anyone with any engineerring talent or experince is leaving the company.

Not some knockoff, buggy 3rd party indie app.
Well I know you can on mobile VR but youre sort of right when it comes to high end VR. So yes I agree
Yeah, cool. But you'll need really fast connection so all 3D building load quickly
Stop being pretentious. Pre-caching exists.
Thanks to the update this week, the loading speed has improved significantly!

I've got that :) Here in France with the ISP Free for €9.99/month (1Gbps down / 200 Mbps up, no cap)
Come on man. Are we living on the same planet? You don't actually have 1Gbps down / 200 Mbps up, no cap for 9.99 euros/month! Not even Larry Page in Google headquarters has that with that price. That's the theoretical speed limit. How much do you actually get? If I am wrong I am moving to France next week.

ONE OF THE BEST VR EXPERIENCE AND THIS IS FOR FREE !
THANK YOU GOOGLE AND WE NEED MORE.
When we can expect a update when you can for example change the years of street view, and have a hybrid maps in fly mode?
OMG! Goosebumps! Google you deserve all the money from me. Take it all from me. ahaha
For the vive you mean, since this experience it's free for download on steam, if you have the headset.

But that was made by a small indie team later acquired by Google.

We need this on the oculus store for gear VR too
Please make this work on the Oculus Quest 2 without having to plug in a cable to my PC!!
YES, please! It’s the best VR app ever made, nothing can touch the beautiful tool made by reality itself.
Buy a Shadow Gaming account and use it to run VR PC titles on your Quest
@@Paul-nh4tk Or they can also use plutosphere to use it to run PC vr titles to their quest and play google earth vr that way without having to purchase a subscription

@@Paul-nh4tk yes
Bring this to Daydream pleeeeeeeeaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Does the app look as good as the video??? it looks amazing!
Well done, google! Thank you for this!
This an awesome way to learn the place before you actually go there so you won't get lost.
Truly one of the most therapeutic experiences I've had in a long time, sometimes I literally just boot this game up and watch the sunrise. I love our world
uh wake up early
@@artistfrank8511 End it all buddy
What’s the fidelity of the graphics like when actually using the app? Recently my stepson introduced me to PSVR2, and although it’s pretty damn cool and impressive, the visual fidelity is still nowhere close to the graphics of the regular ps5 experience.
@@rogermoreno1152 Typically you will see a little more bottlenecking graphically on VR due to a closer view of the screen and the console having to render 2 1080p monitors all the while tracking gyro and location in space. Also, the VR game space is just generally newer, so you might not see as high quality games as you do with AAA releases on standard consoles.
its virtual reality of real reality. its like realityception

In few years we will be able to walk in google earth & it will look better than most video games..
You predicted google street view vr
🤣🤣🤣🤣 7 years later and Google Earth VR still looks like a terrible ultra LOW resolution, PlayStation 1 quality experience.
Why have you removed the turn function in Oculus Rift S? I used to be able to turn L/R with the controller but now there is only forward and reverse. Surely you can't expect us to turn solely by physically turning right? Some of us still have cables that we get wrapped up in which makes controller turning much better.
Mom! It should be my next birthday gift...!!!!
It would be awesome if it also includes going into buildings like a tourist would from the streets. This obviously would require businesses and tourist site to allow for 3D scans to be made and integrated into google earth. For photographers and cinematographers this is a great tool for location scouting.
Or they could crowdsource it from random people and have Google Earth be open source and decentralized. That way they can bypass any laws and nobody can do anything.
loved the rendering !!
2016: interesting...
2020: I NEED THIS NOW

GoogleVR.. amazing experience, all i need now is a cape & louis lane mod.
It's amazing and mind-boggling that this exists
So much $ saved on traveling :D
The question is, will the game look as good as it does in the trailer?
Yes! It does depend on the density of Google's 3D survey data for the area you're in. In big cities like NYC and Tokyo etc, it looks excellent. But in more remote areas the 3D rendering is lower fidelity.
Why has no one ever wondered that it's pretty scary Google has so much Data about the world, that they can literally simulate the world.
Works at first, then when you zoom out to explore another area all the terrains and models models disappears from Earth . Going to another preset location doesn't work either, still blank terrain. I think the software purges the textures after your mess with the zoom level. Hopefully the devs will fix that.

We need the same program for the Oculus quest 2.
Tried this last night on 200+ MB internet, and a GTX 1070 gaming machine and it doesnt look like this at all. I don;t know if theres an option to increase cache but the pop in is real, the resolution of the terrain and texture resolution does not match what is seen in this video at all. But it's free and its still a cool experience
*Could you even imagine this level of details 3 years ago? O_o*
*I can't wait to see what it'll be like in 10 years!!!*
Well, it turns out that in 10 years...
it's sadly not much more than abandonware.
@@Something_Disgusting google has been experimenting with nerfs (neural radiance fields)
from nerfs, a french team created gaussian splatting (very fast and high quality) although google aren't done with nerfs yet, google made real time demos that even works on mobile devices and display a lot of details
Google has shown demos of nerfs showing the inside of restaurants and entire streets in the past.
Do not despair, google earth, street view and the many different forms of real world mapping are going to be wild!
Wow if only this was released before I sold my Vive, I might have changed my mind...
May I ask, why did you sell it? I have been looking into buying one but I feel that the resolution may be a bit too low- I have been spoilt with a 3440x1440 ultra wide monitor.
It varies from people, many with the Vive I heard love it, but for me although some VR contents are cool, most tend to last very short (you can see Steam reviews play time). More reasons would be my play area is under room scale so the wires are really annoying and I kept bump into stuff, and it's just that I need money more at this moment :)
Also yes the resolution isn't good when I'm looking at sedentary stuff with very obvious screen door effect; when I'm moving or it's dark it's pretty immersive (but then again limited to small play area which became impractical to me)
Andy Lee thanks for the reply! Yeah the low playtimes is something I noticed when checking out the earthvr steam page- 0.1 hours on record- lol. The conundrum is that i have a gtx980 which i feel like would be wasted if I didnt put it to good use, as when vr gets higher resolution (likely gen 3 vr: 2-3 years away) my 980 will be too weak and irrelevant. I also am also thinking of renting my vive out, charging people about 10 bucks for an hour or two of gameplay. This could compensate for half of the purchase cost, and i would just sell it when gen 2 (probabally wireless) comes out. Did you have many friends who showed much intrest in trying out your vive? Lastly, have you trued any source engine games (portal, tf2 ect), i play tf2 alot and am wondering if first person shooters work well in vr. Thanks!!!
980 is great for high end desktop games! I had 970 and the fan kicks in loud with many games in ultra settings. Oculus Rift has new tech which enables 960 to run it so can't say for sure but I'd guess 980 can handle next gen if Vive follow up something similar.
Some friends that asked about the Vive are mostly pc gamers or just curious what VR is. Once a friend came to try it, we moved all the stuff out to make it room scale, he ended up playing The Lab Longbow for straight 4 hours lol (by then I only played 2), it was late at night so could've been longer.
I heard Onward is the top VR FPS game. Haven't played it yet but look at that steam play time compared to other titles. xD
Really small part of you guys actually realize how hard is it to make such a project real. It's something that 99.9% of the people will never be capable of realizing how hard is it to make such a thing. And I'm really glad that there is people that are boosting the tech to a completely new level every single year.

TIP: Turn on Human Scale in the options menu to zoom down to a real human size. It allows you to "walk" around at street level.
downloaded and played with it last night. this video does not do it justice! when you fly out to space the earth is so enormous in your view that it will leave you awestruck. the detail in even smaller cities than the major metropolitan areas is great. its probably my fav program for the Vive now
Perfect. Now I never have to leave the house.
You NEED to make this available on iOS devices for use on other vr headsets

Why are they showing this on Vive and not the new Daydream VR?
RAIN the controller is the daydream one. Probably they wanted to underline it is available on both but in the end the best experience will be on a dedicated vr device.
the controller is not the daydream one. if you look at the virtual controller @ 0:26 it has buttons above and below the touchpad which is what the Vive controllers have
Probably because Daydream doesn't have positional tracking for the headset and the controller (they can only rotate) and has a very limited performance (smartphone and VR has to run at high resolution and high framerate).
BECAUSE YOUR PHONE IS TRASH! (doesn't have a good enough graphics card and not good enough CPU... or RAM... or harddrive)
White Autumn and winter & summer.
Soon VR will be so advanced you will feel the heat of where you are and much you won't even need to go on a plane or boat.
Waaaaaaaaaao beautiful 👍👍👌
I can't wait for the day that it goes from headset to a contact lens. I do think this is an exciting time to be alive with the advancements that are being made.
Just tried it. Really damn cool Google. Add the 360 street view support and it will be perfect. Sadly rural areas don't have much 3D support so your house aint gonna be 3d but you can view a HD 2D satellite image from gods perspective though!
