Google is updating Chrome PiP to better support video conferencing

In the past 12 months, due to the impact of the epidemic, when we work at home and communicate with friends, video conferencing has been dominant. Google is seeking to improve video conferencing in the Chrome browser and upgrade its picture-in-picture window capabilities to support common video call operations, such as switching signals and ending calls.

“We hope to make Picture-in-Picture (PiP) more useful on the video conferencing platform, allowing users to mute/cancel the microphone, enable/disable the camera, or hang up the call from the PiP window. Google engineer Tommy Steimel sees at Techtsp.com A design document that arrived said: “In order to achieve this goal, we will add new actions for these in the MediaSession API, and let the website declare its own service program for these actions.

There is also a mockup attached to the style guide, which can be seen below:

Google predicts that by simply extending the MediaSession API used by the PiP window website, developers will be able to easily adopt this technology without causing new privacy issues. This improvement is still in the proposal stage and has not yet been implemented in any version of the Chrome browser.
