Microsoft announced its new feature, the sign language view for Teams video conferencing platform.
According to Microsoft, Teams users can enable the feature for all meetings or on a meeting-by-meeting basis, which is especially useful for non-hearing-impaired signers.
The said feature allows sign language users to choose up to two other participants' videos to be fixed at a central location, enabling selected signers to be seen throughout the entire conference.
Furthermore, the user's sign language view is private; other call participants won't be made aware of it or have their own Teams view altered.
Microsoft also unveiled a new sticky preferences pane for Teams that provides users with quick access to make changes during calls, such as activating sign language view by default or pre-setting favorite signers.
