Google Beam Brings 3D to Video Chat — Here's How It Works
Google announced at its May 20, 2025 I/O conference that Project Starline has become a new product named Google Beam.
Google developed Beam to create a realistic 3D video calling experience using AI, computer vision, and a six-camera system capturing users from multiple angles.
Beam integrates with Google Meet, Zoom, and includes AI-powered real-time speech translation initially supporting English and Spanish, with more languages planned.
Google claims Beam streams 3D video at 60 frames per second with millimeter-level head tracking and will launch to select enterprise customers including Deloitte and Salesforce in 2025.
Beam targets large businesses for hybrid or office-to-office meetings, and Google partners with HP to deliver early devices, while pricing and broader adoption remain uncertain.
At I/O 2025, Google unveiled a host of AI-related updates. Among the surprises were an AI app for creating movies and fresh details about Project Starline. RBC-Ukraine (Project Styler) tells about all the key announcements from Google I/O 2025.
