Just finished a photo shoot of the Google Street View Trike with its inventor, Daniel Ratner. The Street View trike is a three-wheeled pedicab mounted with a 360 degree multiple camera system mounted on a 7-foot pole that records photographic images automatically. The trike can go where the regular Google Street View Car cannot, like park trails, walkways and some of very narrow streets in Europe. The pictures can be seen here.
