FULL STORY ======================================================================

Nvidia has announced a suite of new updates coming to its Broadcast client that could help make your next video conferencing call or presentation much more engaging.

Its new Eye Contact feature uses artificial intelligence (AI) to check
whether your eyes are looking at the camera, and if not, overlay a new pair
of eyes over your own so that you are.

Its geared towards content creators who may want to read a script, but maintain eye contact with the camera for a more personal feel. Nvidia Broadcast Eye Contact

The company has developed millions of eye color and lighting combinations so that it can give you a new pair of eyes that are as closely matched to your own as possible, however the tool is still in beta format so some errors are to be expected.

Nvidia has also made some changes to its virtual backgrounds as many of us continue to work from home (and want to hide the mess that resides behind us at our desk). The Blur, Replacement, and Removal effects have been tweaked
for better stability, and theres also a new Vignette effect to play with.

While this isnt the first time that weve seen artificial eye contact implemented in live video feed (FaceTime has been doing its Attention Correction feature to a degree since iOS 13), its somewhat more rare to see
it implemented outside of the video conferencing environment. Here are the best online collaboration tools
