Apple iPhone users will be able to look inside homes as the company unveils a new high-definition 3D mapping service developed with its own private air force.
Military-grade cameras have been used to map 20 cities around the world which are so advanced it will be possible to see objects that are just four inches across.
Apple are engaged in an extraordinary war with Google who are planning to produce their own 3D maps using special camera planes.
Privacy campaigners have expressed concern that the two tech companies are engaging in a ‘fight to the bottom’ where ‘all privacy concerns go out the window’.
Apple will hope to replace Street View as the mapping service of choice when they launch their new software for iPhone and iPad this week.
