Yasser Rashad – Cairo – The technology giant Microsoft has launched a new tool called “Background Decoration,” which can be activated during emergency video calls, according to Russia Today.
The tool uses artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the background in video calls. Here, we are not talking regarding just a quick arrangement, but the tool can also add decorations and atmosphere appropriate to the nature of your calls.
Microsoft announced the new tool at the Ignite conference this week. “Make meetings more fun and personal by decorating your background. Meeting participants can now use creative background effects in Teams to show their best, even when the space they’re working in isn’t at its best,” she said.
Users can choose from three options: clean, luxury or celebration.
The cleaning option skillfully arranges your wallpaper, removing items from the floor and scattering items on the shelves.
The luxurious option adds twinkling fairy lights. Meanwhile, the Celebration option adds a festive Christmas tree and gifts behind you.
The feature will launch in early 2024 for Teams Premium users.
This news comes shortly following a study revealed how your background in video calls affects the first impression you make.
Researchers from Durham University say that people who sit in front of houseplants or bookcases are considered the most trustworthy.
On the other hand, people who use new backgrounds, such as beaches or animals, are considered the least efficient, according to the study.
