The business teamed up with HP to start selling a smaller form of the product to big businesses.
The cutting-edge video conferencing technology known as Project Starline is going to be made available to enterprise customers thanks to a collaboration between Google and HP. In 2021, the firm began demonstrating this service for the first time. The initial version of the service consisted of a 3D video chat booth that displayed a projection of the person with whom you were conversing. The holographic technology left us with a profound sense of awe and admiration, as we remarked on how lifelike everything appeared to be and how the other person appeared to be present in the same room accompanied by you.
With that being said, this technology is not quite the same as the one that we experimented with a few years ago. The system has undergone significant streamlining and simplification since that time, according to Google. Due to the fact that the entire process has been transferred to a system that includes a large television and cameras, the video chat booth is no longer available. The wow impact is diminished as a result of this, but the implementation process is simplified significantly.
In order to accomplish this goal, Google and HP are going to integrate Project Starline with prevalent video conferencing applications such as Google Meet and Zoom. In addition, there is no information on the initial setup, nor is there any information regarding the fee that will be incurred by businesses in order to get access to this technology. According to Google, additional information will be disclosed later on in this year, and the company plans to begin genuine commercialization in the year 2025.
The information technology company HP refers to it as a “immersive collaboration experience,” and it appears to be a more effective telepresence option than a little smartphone screen. However, when everything is said and done, it is nothing more than a massive exhibition. Nothing that even somewhat resembles holographic projection is included in the most recent version of the Project Starline technology.
