Does this mean that Google is dissipate picture , not just still of every street of the United States ? Well , it would make sense , because those cars are already stray the streets — might as well go ahead and get comparatively high-pitched - resolution video and not just still photographs .
This television camera grab its video with five CCDs facing in all directions as well is one bespeak straight up , letting it snag 75 % of the full sphere . Then it sends its telecasting via 1394 to a compressor unit that ’s capable to pour those images at 30 build per second . [ Point Grey Research ] ( Thanks , Clem Taylor ! )
