Many people don't have a room in their house or apartment that they can dedicate to creating a home office, especially people with kids, and have to use a shared room. Blocking the background is essential. Also, sneezing during a pandemic sounds like something that could get an employee or contractor a furlough.

Haven't gotten to try it yet, but is head bubble actually black around the edges, or is that just to show off how it works?

First thought was it would be nice to combine head bubble with blur, so you avoid the stark background -- that's probably already what you're doing though. Will give it a shot later today.

yes, the Head Bubble puts your head in a bubble, making your background black and tracking your head. it's a great way to hide your background and it really takes away any distractions from video calls.
