In the future, people may choose to meet in virtual meeting rooms using three dimensional rendering and systems developed by AMI to augment the verbal and non-verbal communications. Imagine, for example, that people wanted to meet in a "neutral" space, or that they did not wish to disclose information about their current surroundings. In the Distributed Virtual Meeting Room, all participants can benefit from verbal and non-verbal communications; there can be pro-active and reactive meeting support based on real time processing of the media streams, detecting events and activities. Virtual reality will permit higher and more comprehensive levels of visualization than is presently possible using current commercial technologies.

Description in Czech
V budoucnosti lidé mohou chtít realizovat meetingy virtuálně, ve virtuální místnosti, využívající třídimenzionální zobrazování a systémy vyvinuté v rámci AMI projektu. V distribuované virtuální místnosti mohou všichni účastníci využívat verbální i neverbální komunikace. Verbální komunikace je obyčejně realizovaná media streaming technologiemi, zatímco neverbální je nyní realizovatelná současnými technologiemi virtuální reality.
