CTOnews.com, March 14 (Xinhua)-- Microsoft's online video conferencing, phone and chat collaboration software recently announced many new features, including spatial audio and video filters in meetings. It is reported that Microsoft is also developing the function of avatars for Teams.

According to a recent entry on Microsoft's roadmap (feature number ID 107969), avatars will be launched on Teams in May. The purpose of this feature is to allow users to temporarily turn off the camera when needed and replace it with their own custom avatars. Microsoft also said that users are free to choose the style and expression of the avatar.

The avatar function of Teams was first announced in November 2021. At the time, the company pointed out that users could turn on interaction modes such as eye contact and real-time feedback if they wanted more real-life interactions between avatars. These 3D avatars are supported by the Mesh mixed reality (MR) platform.

Microsoft has provided some organizations with a preview of the Teams avatar feature, which users can use through the Avatars app in the Teams App Store. According to Microsoft's roadmap of 365, this feature is scheduled to be officially launched on the desktop and Mac in May this year. It is important to note, however, that this time may change before the official release, and CTOnews.com will keep an eye on it.
