On September 8, 2021 local time, the name change from 'Rooms' to 'Spaces' announced in June 2021 was put into practice. With this name change, it has been revealed that multiple updates will be made to Workspace within the next few months, allowing members of the organization to join the Spaces chat room from the content, and searching for content within Spaces and throughout Spaces. It is said that it will be possible to do this, and the UI of Workspace itself will be renewed. The actual Spaces screenshot looks like this.
Above all, by integrating the calling function of Google Meet into Workspace, 'Meet Calling' has been implemented, which allows smooth video calls from Gmail's one-to-one chat. When receiving Meet Calling, the mobile version of Gmail users will be notified to the smartphone itself, and the PC version of Gmail users will see push notifications in the chat. Both devices are easy to handle, so Google describes it as 'second only to sudden conversations that occur in aisles and the like.'
In addition, Google Meet plans to roll out a 'companion mode' that allows access to audio and video systems installed in the conference room from November 2021. In companion mode, you can participate in in-meeting activities such as voting and Q & A, avoid howling when used with speakers in the meeting room, and share the screen. It also has a function to translate meetings held in English into French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese, and Google says that it plans to increase the number of languages supported in the future.
In addition, the display-integrated devices 'Series One Board 65' and 'Series One Desk 27' for Google Meet were also announced.
The Series One Board 65 has a 65-inch & 4K-supported display, and the Series One Desk 27 has a 27-inch display.
Neither is Google's completely in-house product, but a product jointly developed with Avocor, which focuses on interactive display products.

The Series One Board 65 is ideal for video conferences and electronic whiteboards.
The Series One Desk 27 is small yet powerful and ideal for the workplace. Both support plug-in play.
Equipped with a noise canceling system that utilizes Google AI, you can hear clear voice anywhere in the room.
The price and release date of 'Series One Board 65' and 'Series One Desk 27' are undecided.
