The American multinational Microsoft presented on Tuesday Mesh , its own augmented reality platform , which allows people who are in different places to meet virtually in the form of a hologram with their physical appearance.

Mesh is built on top of the company’s cloud computing service, Azure, and offers an interface of what Microsoft has dubbed “mixed reality”, that is, halfway between augmented and virtual reality (the former overlaps elements to the physical environment, while the second creates a totally artificial environment).

“You can feel that you are in the same place as another person and you can teleport from different devices to be present with other people even if they are not physically together,” Microsoft technical partner Alex Kipman said during the presentation.

Mesh opened the company’s Ignite developer conference on Tuesday, which this year is being held completely remotely due to the covid-19 pandemic, and at it, Kipman appeared in the form of a hologram.
