Microsoft, with an aim to further improve the quality of voice calls on Teams, has announced new AI-based features like Echo Cancellation, improvements to room acoustics, and more. These come in addition to the recent background noise suppression feature for Teams. Have a look at the new Teams features.
The Echo Cancellation feature will eliminate the echo effect created usually when a person has the mic too close to the speaker. With the use of AI, Teams will be able to recognize the difference between sound from a speaker and the user’s voice for echo cancellation. Microsoft says that this feature will work without suppressing speech or interrupting multiple people from speaking at the same time.
It is also revealed that the background noise suppression feature will soon reach Teams Android and web clients. This feature to cut the background noise recently became a default feature on Windows, Mac, and iOS Teams versions.
