The new Eye Contact feature uses A.I. to particularly estimate and align the user's gaze to adjust the webcam's perspective. This gives the illusion that the person employing the feature is maintaining eye contact with the camera throughout the meeting.

This will help users create a more natural and engaging environment for communication, as it imitates the way humans interact in person. This will certainly benefit all those who like to communicate while reading scripts, as well as individuals who often use video conferencing for work or personal tasks.

This is another feature that was launched for the broadcasting software in Nvidia's recent update. It's a bit similar to the vignette effect that you see on social media apps.

Through this feature, you can add a background blur effect, which will give you an A.I. simulated bokeh effect on your webcam and provide a significant improvement in the video quality. Additionally, you'll get the option to mirror your camera and also take screenshots of your webcam.
