US technology giant Facebook recently announced that it would change its name to ‘Meta’ and announced the company’s new projects related to the metaverse to the public.
After these explanations, a counter step came from Microsoft. The company is preparing to bring the world of the metaverse to office life. While the remote working model was widely preferred with the Corona virus epidemic, video conferencing applications were also frequently used.
WILL EXHIBIT THEIR MOVEMENTS
Microsoft has announced that it will use the virtual and real world together in its video conferencing application Teams. Accordingly, employees participating in the meeting via Teams will be able to use their three-dimensional avatars or animations instead of camera images. It was stated that this innovation, where the person can display their own movements through the avatar, is important in terms of making the employees feel more comfortable.
250 million people use it
Jared Spataro, the head of the Teams team, told the Financial Times, “250 million people around the world use Teams. The presentation of the avatars shows that the metaverse elements are real.”
