🇺🇸 For a deployed service member, missing family moments adds up. Baby’s first step. The first performance. Sharing a laugh.
In honor of National Day of the Deployed, we’re excited to partner with @USArmy and @The_USO to bring Google Beam to 20 locations so deployed service members can experience lifelike, 3D video connections with their loved ones.
🎥 Watch the docuseries below

We're preparing our first pair of Google Beam units to send out to military families so they can stay connected with their deployed service members overseas.
Excited to pilot with @The_USO on this and scale it up next year!

Project Starline is going from research to reality. It will now be called Google Beam! Our advanced AI doesn't just connect you—it feels like it teleports you in stunning, lifelike 3D.
The first devices from @HP launch later this year for early customers!

Google Beam uses a new video model to transform 2D video streams into a realistic 3D experience — with near perfect headtracking, down to the millimeter, and at 60 frames per second, all in real-time.
The result is an immersive conversational experience. HP will share more soon
Today, Sundar announced that Project Starline is now Google Beam, our new AI-first 3D video communication platform.
With Beam, it feels like you have a magic window to see anyone you care about, anywhere in the world.

What if you could take a 2D video call and make it feel like you’re really there?
Google Beam, our new AI-first video communication platform, does just that — using a state-of-the-art AI video model to transform 2D video streams into a realistic 3D experience. #GoogleIO

Google is shipping 3D video conferencing tech this year.
Project Starline is now Google Beam, with HP being the first OEM to bring it to market.
It literally feels like a portal. Having tried this tech while I was at Google for regular meetings — lemme tell you your recall is way better from these 3D chats vs 2D zoom calls that all blur together.

Great overall discussion of the AI announcements at I/O, but my favorite is his reaction to a personal Starline demo: "if you told me the whole setup cost a million dollars or more it would not seem excessive, relative to the quality of the experience".

📺 Wow, we're on TV! 📺 Project Starline was featured this week on 60 Minutes to showcase Google's many AI breakthroughs 😎

Project Starline vs today's video conferencing? We've found some pretty big improvements with our Project Starline users -- reduced "zoom fatigue", more turn-taking, and more attention on the person you're together with.

I finally got to try Google’s Project Starline, which is being tested in some real-world offices. Life-size holographic light field chat vs VR with realistic avatars had a very different feel…oddly, comforting? cnet.com/tech/computing/goog…
The Verge after trying out Project Starline: "felt like real life science fiction". That's a pretty good tag line 😁
