Google announced 360-degree virtual backgrounds for video
calls in Google Meet last month and is now rolling it out to mobile phone users
of both iOS and Android.
The specialty of these backgrounds is that they move using
the device’s gyroscope. During video calls, the background will change
according to the position and movement of the device, hence making the scenery
appear more realistic.
The 360-degree background can be changed during a video
call, including a virtual beach, temple, and other views.
In addition to that, Google recently launched a range of
emoji reactions for Meet. The company plans to switch users of Meet to the new
Meet app that also includes the features of
Duo.
