As remote work becomes commonplace, virtual meetings have taken center stage. But at the same time, the challenge lies in creating an engaging experience that imparts a sense of physical presence, allowing attendees to interact as they would in a traditional office setting. Virtual meeting platforms such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Zoho, and others are innovating to enhance the connection among meeting participants. Zoom, in particular, is taking a significant step by introducing a new app that empowers users to express their personality during calls.

Zoom’s Vision Pro is the latest offering from Zoom. The application is designed to work in integration with Apple Vision Pro. Smita, the CPO at Zoom said, "Zoom on Apple Vision Pro helps teammates stay connected no matter when and where they work, or how they communicate and collaborate." In addition to that, the application is anticipated to increase productivity and improve collaboration among colleagues working remotely.

The application will build the virtual persona of the user that would represent the user in the virtual meetings. The digital persona would mimic the facial features and hand gestures making it look real to the other participants. It would allow the users to scale up or down the environment to get the feeling that they are standing in the same physical place as their colleagues. The feature is quite powerful, enhancing a sense of connection with others.

Users will now have the capability to share 3D objects during virtual meetings, enabling a comprehensive view of the objects from various angles. This marks a revolutionary advancement, empowering designers to collaborate remotely and assess designs seamlessly, regardless of their geographical locations.

Furthermore, the introduction of Real-World Pinning enhances the virtual meeting experience by enabling users to pin up to five participants within their physical space. With the ability to remove original backgrounds, these individuals will appear as if they are all present in the same room, lending a higher sense of realism to the conversations and interactions.
