FUTURE TECHNOLOGY 3D COMMUNICATION





Skype is working to allow its user to make video call in three dimension,announced by senior executive Mark Gillet in exclusive interview with BBC on 10th anniversary of Skype.

   
                                   

However he warned that the full deployment may take several years.Mr Gillet told the BBC.

"We've seen a lot of progress in screens and a lot of people now buy TVs and computer monitors that are capable of delivering a 3D image.

"But the capture devices are not yet there. As we work with that kind of technology you have to add multiple cameras to your computer, precisely calibrate them and point them at the right angle.

"We have it in the lab, we know how to make it work and we're looking at the ecosystem of devices and their capability to support it in order to make a decision when we might think about bringing something like that to market."


Skype allows people to make free audio and video calls to other Skype users around the world, with just a computer or smartphone running its software as well as a webcam, microphone and speakers.

Once only available on PCs, people can now Skype each other using smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, their home telephones and even gaming devices.


Microsoft bought Skype two years ago.It cost Microsoft 8.5 billion $.Skype handled 115 billion minutes of call,including 34 percent of all international calls over last financial quarter.
