ABSTRACT:

Online meeting platforms are used widely in today’s era of Digital India. These meeting platforms are used in providing online education, online dating and online business meetings, etc. During the last decade, there is quite a development in online meeting methods. At present the meeting applications solve almost everything be it sharing screen, muting mic, disabling your camera, and changing the background but still they sometimes become boring. This article presents ways to make meeting applications more interesting using Avatar formation, interacting using Avatar, and providing hand gesture controls to increase and decrease the volume of the meeting platform. Different deep learning techniques are required to make different avatars according to different people. Different Machine learning and Computer Vision techniques are used such as face recognition for extracting the features from the face to directly apply them to the Avatar. These methods and features are an add-on to the existing Meeting Applications, which makes them more interactive.
