List of changes

❗New feature - Weatherman

Weatherman mode is an improvement on top of Banuba's cutting-edge background replacement. It allows users to drag and drop themselves on any place on the screen to emulate the look of a TV presenter the feature is named after. Weatherman is useful for reactions, learning content, presentations, explainers and other similar videos thanks to the professional feel it creates.

<aside> ❗

The feature requires Face AR SDK and is not enabled by default.

Contact to Banuba representatives to trial this feature.
