While Meta is extensively working to make mixed reality a norm in the digital communications sector, it is not the only company with this vision. Amongst others, Microsoft is another tech giant working on virtual environments and holograms with its Mesh project. Although the availability of mixed reality platforms might take some time, the Redmond giant has taken a more practical approach to bring the taste of a virtual platform to its communications app Teams. Enter Mesh for Teams!
Users can also use Microsoft’s HoloLens devices and the Mesh app for HoloLens to connect and virtually interact with other digital avatars and 3D content in an environment as if they are physically there in the space. Microsoft says that these are some of the initial glimpses of its Mesh technology. The company has been developing its communications app Teams to make it on par with the competition. With this addition, Teams will surely have an edge over other similar video conferencing apps like Zoom and Google Meet.
