It looks like Google’s Street View will soon be expanding to even more places than it already covers. The company has unveiled a brand new capture tool called the Street View Trekker, which can be worn on a person’s back in order to map and photograph areas that are too difficult for even a bicycle or snowmobile to reach. It’s Android-powered, and it packs two batteries that Google says will last a full day. No word on when we’ll see the first results from it, but Google intends to take to National Parks, the Grand Canyon, castles, ruins, and more.
