backdrops
Fake backdrops for video conferencing | |
Produce and sell fake "live" backdrops for people with video phones. Kremlin, the oval office, tornado victims.
Also, "blue screen" scene alanalysis software that can turn the parts of the image that consistently don't move into any GIF you pick.
(If you have props, pick them up and wiggle
them briefly before transmission starts.)
Baked!

This reminds me of "the Excuse Channel," a rumored Tokyo radio station. You could call up and request specific background noise then turn up your stereo and make a phone call from any simulated location. "Hello Boss? Sorry I'm late, the subway's broken down and I'm stuck in the station. Maybe I'll be in in a hour." |

I think a bigger market would be automatic makeup/hair paint 'n' fill for
those mornings you answer the videophone after just rolling out of bed. Hide Hangover? (Y/N) |

In England, there's a pub with a sealed phone box where you can phone your other half to say you'll be late. You can select noises for the background, eg. traffic, stockmarket etc. Every pub should have one... |

Not only do we need backgrounds and ambient noises, but how about avatars so we can portray any self-image that suits our purpose? And if we really want a bulletproof disguise, how about plain old email? |
