Experience immersive audio during Teams meetings with spatial audio. When people speak, you'll hear their voices coming from their relative positions on the meeting screen.
Compatibility requirements
Listen to your meeting with spatial audio with USB-wired stereo headphones or speakers, or your device’s built-in stereo speakers. Bluetooth audio devices aren’t currently supported for spatial audio.
To experience this effect, the meeting must have more than two participants in gallery view.
Note: To preserve audio quality, Teams will turn off spatial audio if your network's bandwidth or computer memory is low.
