Finding your way around Dubai has become easier as the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) links up with Google Glass to provide step by step guidance to public transport users, Gulf News can reveal.
Google Glass users can now have access to all the information about public transport in Dubai including timings, route maps as well as the availability of various modes of transport through Google Maps.
“It’s as easy as just saying ‘Hey Google take me to Dubai Mall’ and Google Glass will offer you all the options to reach Dubai Mall from a particular location,” said Abdullah Al Madani, CEO of RTA’s Corporate Support Services Sector.
The service can be availed of by activating Google Glass’ ‘Step by Step’ feature through which it advises users on the exact route to a particular destination as well as the alternatives available.
“It will provide users with information on all the modes of transport available from one point to another, the timings on each mode and where the nearest bus, Metro or marine stations are,” Al Madani said.
