Made-in-India video-conferencing application VideoMeet has yet again delivered a highly useful feature, ‘close captioning’, to make the virtual meeting experience for its user base convenient. The application has begun the feature with Hindi and English captions but plans to roll out in all Indian regional languages with future app updates. The purpose behind introducing this feature was to reduce the intensity of disturbing elements in the meeting.
The feature is accessible and enabled by the host for conducting a seamless meeting. Dr Ajay Data, Founder and CEO, VideoMeet, explaining the message behind this feature, said, “We are a homegrown application, and it is our duty to introduce features that symbolise our vast culture; India being a diverse nation deserves a virtual meeting application that makes them feel connected and close to their roots. The characters in close captioning appear at the speed at which the user speaks, which is highly efficient and well-coordinated.”
Apart from this feature, VideoMeet ever since its inception has been integrating unique features such as the Backstage platform that allow users to wait in a safe mode before entering the meeting. Participants are also made aware of their waiting time before given access to a virtual meeting. Another one being Playback feature, which enables participants to watch the pre-recorded sessions and meetings. It gives control to the host for managing and scheduling the entire playback for smooth communication.
