Does it require light to work? What about space? Could you e.g. work in a dark closet, as an extreme example?

Do those semi-realistic virtual avatars work for non-FaceTime apps like Zoom?

You can but you need IR lights for it to work

No. Works in the dark. The vision has IR lights on it.

No the personas aren’t right. They just creep people out. They need more work, or some basic editablity. It generally nails your eyes perfectly at the expense of everything else.
