Microsoft is adding video filters to its video conferencing platform, Microsoft Teams.

“Video filters allow participants in Teams Meetings to augment their video stream with visual effects,” according to Microsoft 365 roadmap.
The effects will be provided by app developers on Teams Platform.
The tech company has been constantly updating its Teams app, ever since people shifted to the pandemic-forced work from home and hybrid setup.
Teams’ rival Zoom also has video filters to make meetings fun. It allows users to select and switch filters depending on their mood and audience.
Users for instance, can wear a pizza hat or a crown of flowers, a pirate eye patch or bunny ears.
