Microsoft Mesh feels like the virtual future of Microsoft Teams meetings. Last week, Microsoft’s Alex Kipman, the inventor of Kinect and HoloLens, appeared in my living room to hand me jellyfish and sharks.

Microsoft Mesh feels like the virtual future of Microsoft Teams meetings

That might sound like I had a weird dream, but it was a meeting made possible through Microsoft’s new Mesh platform. I donned a HoloLens 2 headset, joined a virtual meeting room, and Kipman immediately appeared next to my coffee table, ready to demonstrate Microsoft’s vision for the future of VR and AR — or as Microsoft calls it, mixed reality. It all felt like a Microsoft Teams meeting set in the future. Mesh is a collaborative platform that allows anyone to have shared virtual experiences on a variety of devices.

“This has been the dream for mixed reality, the idea from the very beginning,” explains Kipman. Initially, Mesh will present people as virtual avatars taken from the AltspaceVR social network that Microsoft acquired back in 2017. It was the next best thing to having Kipman in the room with me and reminded me of my first experience with HoloLens. Hubs by Mozilla. High-Performing LinkedIn Video Templates.
