Zoom Is Bringing Live Translation To ‘Zoom and Facebook VR’

Introduce

Zoom Video Communications Inc. has been very popular in the past few years, especially during the corona pandemic. Due to the uncertain economic situation and many people staying at home, users of services such as Zoom have increased.

Zoom is a photo and video sharing application that allows users to connect via video and audio chat, and provides messaging support and can be quickly activated.In addition, since Covid-19 is still inconclusive when it will finally end, Zoom is expected to grow in many ways, especially in terms of active users.Having said that, and with broad prospects for further growth, Zoom is now providing real-time translation services for its platform. In addition, it not only introduces these services to the platform, but also introduces them to Facebook VR.In short, we can say that Zoom clearly shows no signs of obstruction. In fact, its only motivation seems to be to move forward.

Zoom's current and future plans

Zoom just announced that it will support "automatic real-time transcription" for its service applications. It also revealed that it will turn its whiteboard function into a complete featured application. In addition, the company is said to support other changes to its service applications, which will be announced at the Zoomtopia conference on Monday.

Previously, Zoom announced that it would provide automatic real-time transcription and closed captioning for free Zoom accounts by February 2021.Zoom also announced that it plans to provide real-time transcription for approximately 30 other languages by the end of 2022.Obviously, the company is very serious about its expansion plan and will use a "push policy" to push it forward.

As part of these policies, Zoom will provide translation services for paid accounts. By the end of 2022, these plans will support real-time translation in 12 languages.

The company could not say which languages will be supported and when. However, it does show that these contributions were made after it acquired "Kite", a German translation company that enhances machine learning.

Zoom and its competition

Zoom responds to fierce competition, so it must be in a leading position to ensure that it remains competitive in the large technology industry and games.There is another major change in the future, the upcoming Zoom.

Zoom is enhancing its whiteboard capabilities. The whiteboard function can create and share whiteboards during the meeting. This allows you to doodle together while talking. However, with the later well-organized expansion and the new Beta mode of the feature, Zoom Whiteboard will also be available on the web and in apps.The change you can find in the whiteboard is that you can use it in a video call. This means you can choose to add notes, comments, and drawings on the board. This also means that you can view them at any time.Zoom will also join Facebook Horizon Workrooms, which is another major development for the company.So it can be guaranteed that Zoom has a lot to offer in the coming months. Investors and stakeholders should be hooked.
