Stereoscopic cameras + occulus + web meetings = virtually being there with the ability to put someone on mute and meet in the executive conference room on the Death Star. Maybe you could put them on mute with a gesture, like a force neck pinch...-- RayfordSteele, May 08 2020 AR/VR conferencing, Hololens, Magic Leap, VR https://spatial.io/ [theircompetitor, May 08 2020] It's going to look a bit weird of everyone in the meeting is wearing VR headsets. You will need some sort of 3D avatar to show the "real" participants.
Better to use a 3D screen and have them wear "shutter" glasses which look fairly normal.
Not a bad idea, though. Bear in mind that true 3D demands staggering amounts of bandwidth.-- 8th of 7, May 08 2020 If everyone were in fixed locations, and you pre- recorded generic puppet positions for all body movements from every available viewing angle, you could easily map those movements and project a person's scanned body image onto the puppet. Intense preprogramming and preparation, but low- bandwidth demand.-- RayfordSteele, May 08 2020 Spatial is kind of going there-- theircompetitor, May 08 2020 //spatial//
