Top Comments of this video!! :3
I can see this being super useful for telemedicine. A medical-specialist-doctor-expert person can be a world away, but if they can "meet" with you using Starline, you can show them the weird rash on your elbow or your crushed hand or whatever, and they would be able to see it so well, the only thing missing would be touch. That's important too, especially for orthopedic and internal injuries, but you'd be at a hospital that had a Starline booth anyway, so a local RN or doctor could follow the expert's instructions WHILE THE EXPERT WATCHED AND COACHED... I think this will have huge benefits for telemedicine.
Not to mention surgery training! Um, I'll let your imagination take over, but if you're a surgeon intern...!

My fiancé is a psychologist. Pre-pandemic she said that a practice like hers would never go remote. Obviously it did and we were able to move from Washington, DC to Vermont. That said, she still spends a week or two in person because so much is lost when remote. I can see a scenario where she sets up a system like this in her DC office giving her clients the opportunity to have a near-match to an in-person experience. The same is true for other areas of healthcare where the meetings are 1:1 and there is a massive value to creating a more intimate human connection.
I am a singing teacher and here to, my practice could justify the expense, I could live where I wanted, but have a studio in an area where there are many clients, or schools could put these setups in practice rooms and bring in teachers from all over.
I expect that it will be a long time before setups like these are part of everyone’s home, but there is a clear, exciting use case for small businesses that have already expanded their reach with remote tools, but are suffering from the current quality of the systems at our disposal.
Thank you, as always for delivering such precise, useful content!❤🎉

Probably the best use I can imagine is nursing homes, hospitals, where one of the people is bound to one place, so the relative could just come to a public Starlight kiosk and dial the right device. Also a great way to communicate with people in medical isolation, during interrogation or with prisoners to ensure the safety on both sides.

Some part of me really values the little glitching or geometric shimmer around the edges of the models. There's something deeply charming about a not-quite-perfect simulacrum of the participants that is just weirdly compelling. A perfect version would indeed be futuristic, but the little scuffs around the edges of tech like this makes it feel futuristic.

Very interesting! I can see the comeback of "phone booths", so people can make realistic meetings; think of long distance relationships, families living far or abroad, etc. Not for homes or domestic use, but yes for scheduling calls or meetings.
Also: YouTube with 2 audio tracks?? Amazing for making content accessible for the masses. I love when technology is actually useful.

This is super awesome. The first idea for this that comes to mind for me is for deployed military. When I was deployed we had sometimes had rooms where we could have video calls with our family over Skype. I could imagine these being setup for soldiers and their families to see each other while deployed

This is really neat. One thing that strikes me interesting is that this is a very hardware intensive piece of tech, and feels more like something that Apple would be developing, probably in secret, rather than Google. It’s interesting how far Google has come in terms of hardware, and where they might be going…

I’ve never seen Marquess been blown away like that with a tech demo. First few seconds you can clearly see him trying to figure out how they were doing this. That’s impressive
