Junction View and Photo Real Views

 

I found this unique intersection on a route on I-90 in Seattle coming off I-5 (exit 164)northbound to Spokane. I was curious to see how it looks in a Nuvi with the PhotoReal feature. How much more life-like can it be? Maybe someone could post a PhotoReal screenshot for comparison.

nice

that was very cool/on what place did you get that and where was that tunnel locate

Reproduce Tunnel Screenshot

I put my Nuvi in simulation mode. Located the icon on the northbound lane at mile marker 162 on I-5 in Washington state. Asked the GPS to route to Spokane, Washington, and said yes to simulate now. The route starts and exits on to I-90 East. Then in about 3 to 4 miles this tunnel view shows up.

PhotoReal Demo

I found this demo video.

Now when I duplicate this on my device with only Junction View, my picture is almost as good and I have Lane Assist in he upper left corner which is missing on the video.

That difference got me wondering if you lose something when you gain PhotoReal or Active Lane Guidance. So I found another video.

When I duplicate this one, my device shows 5 traffic lanes on I-215 but when I get to Russell Rd on I-15 I have no Lane Assist on my unit. What's with that?

So instead of finding answers I just got more mysteries.
