Zoom just introduced a new Immersive View which allows hosts to arrange video participants and webinar panelists into a single virtual background that brings people together into one scene to connect and collaborate in a cohesive virtual meeting space. Being said that, Zoom Immersive View can support up to 25 participants in one fun, or consistent meeting environment.
“Meeting and webinar hosts can select Zoom’s Immersive View the same way they would select the Speaker or Gallery View. When enabling Immersive View, hosts will have the option to automatically or manually place participants into a virtual scene of their choosing. Hosts can also easily move participants around that scene and even resize a participant’s image for a more natural experience.”
Hosts are able to change the scene or revert back to Speaker or Gallery View at any time. Zoom also provided some screens to get started, but you are also able to upload your own. Even hosts can use their own video as an Immersive View scene or bringing participants into their personal virtual background.
Immersive View is available for Free and single Pro accounts using Zoom 5.6.3 or later version, and it can be enabled by default and available on Windows and macOS desktop and it can be enabled via web portal for all other accounts types.
