Thanks to a series of updates to the platform, using Microsoft Teams may no longer drain your laptop’s battery life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft revealed that video conferencing software will now require 50 percent less power to operate in “energy-intensive” scenarios such as multi-person meetings, compared to 18 months ago. Thanks to a slew of changes and optimizations, that should mean an end to power-hungry video calls that could leave remote workers scrambling to find chargers, or forced to mute when their work laptop fans go into overdrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft <\/a><\/strong>Teams battery life
“One of the challenges that comes with the ubiquity of Teams is the need to create equitable experiences across the extremely diverse ecosystem of Windows devices,” Microsoft’s Robert Eichner wrote in a blog post, outlining how A series of improvements since June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aichner noted that these moves should also give users on lower-end devices a better experience when running Microsoft Teams, which means no one should hang up suddenly and ensures that Teams meetings are as energy-efficient as possible, regardless of settings . It’s been a long process, and as the number of users working from home surges during the pandemic, Microsoft continues to optimize Teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes camera optimization tools to reduce the need to use video in meetings and make adjustments such as improved configuration, reduced code complexity for auto exposure, auto white balance, auto aliasing, which reduces power consumption and stabilization of the onboard camera Sexual enhancement and face detection process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft has also integrated and improved video rendering, especially in multi-person video conferences where different participants may join vastly different streams due to hardware changes. This originally meant that a 9-person call using a 3×3 video grid would require nine different rendering operations, but Microsoft combined these streams into a single video, significantly reducing the power requirements of each device used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More recently, Microsoft Teams has also been allowed to leverage the device’s GPU to support improved rendering performance, and recently extended to users’ video previews as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aichner added that this is not the end of Teams optimization, and the company hopes to continue to release new features and improvements in the period to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
