According to a potential feature flag, the Chrome OS team is developing a background blur effect, available on Apple<\/a>'s macOS machines powered by Apple Silicon, for Chromebooks, reports Android Central.
As per the report, background blur is a popular feature of many of the best video conference software, such as Google Meet<\/a>. It is a useful tool for hiding your messy bedroom when video-calling your colleagues.
The report said that adding these effects to Chromebooks as a built-in feature will significantly improve user experience on the platform, which has traditionally lagged behind Windows PCs and MacBooks<\/a> in terms of features.
The tech giant is also likely working on another feature called \"Portrait Relighting,\" which is similar to a feature found in the Google Camera app for Pixel phones.
According to Google, Portrait Light \"adds a simulated directional light source to portraits\" to complement the lighting in the original photo.
