Google’s new tech means video calls may not be the death of us after all

Google and HP are scheduled to release this year a 3-D video communications platform that works without requiring users to wear glasses or a headset, an effort to infuse virtual meetings with a greater sense that people are together in the same space. Making technology work better for humans It feels at times that digital technology can drain the life out of people, given endless messages, the particular strain imposed by extended video calls and social-media streams that won’t let go. “A lot of folks have tried many different things to make video collaboration feel like we’re sitting across from each other, and we all know how hard it is to do. Google research also found that users reported significantly less video meeting fatigue after Starline calls and had faster reaction times on a complex cognitive task. “I also think there’s some interesting ways we can make it more of a three-person to three-person dialogue that feels natural," Shull said.
