A new experiment brings better group meetings to Google Beam

May 20, 2026

See and hear your colleagues in true-to-life size and sound, making hybrid meetings feel more inclusive and connected.

While video conferencing tools keep us connected, users can still struggle to feel included in the conversation. Trying to read subtle emotions in a sea of tiny boxes may leave remote participants feeling like observers rather than engaged participants. Google Beam, our true-to-life video communication platform, helps you solve this problem by turning your meetings into a more active exchange.

Today, we’re sharing a new experiment that brings better group meetings to Google Beam across more devices. Using HP Dimension’s immersive display, Google Beam renders participants joining from non-Beam devices in their true size, positioned as if they were sitting around a table with you. Paired with spatial audio that anchors each voice directly to the person speaking, colleagues look, sound, and feel more like they are in the same room.
