What is Zoom Immersive View and how does it work?

Zoom has started rolling out a new feature called Immersive View that would allow video calls to feel more like an office meeting or classroom. Zoom’s new feature will you let join other meeting attendees in the same virtual space, like a boardroom, coffee shop, classroom, and art gallery among others.

The feature was announced last year at the Zoomtopia conference, and now the feature is available for Free and Pro accounts attending meetings and webinars. The feature allows up to 25 participants to join the meeting in a virtual space. The feature builds on the virtual background features the platform already offers, but focuses on actually placing members in a realistic-looking location instead of just switching out a flat background.
