ROOM 3D, a virtual teleconferencing platform, had taken approximately three years to develop and the aim is to reduce video call fatigue and let users interact with objects and their peers in a natural and learned way.[1][8][9][10] It is the first live product operating on patented and browser first RealityOS, a cloud-based social 3D communications platform which has been developed by the TMRW Foundation.[1]
