Abstract
In our world today, we see the evolution of the communication paradigms
all with the aim of ensuring a quick and quality way of passing information
from one subject to another in different locations. Currently, with the
advent of the internet, many efforts are being made to make
communication socially immersive; in a way that the person you are
communicating with feels naturally close to you. With the inclusion of
visual data like pictures, emoticons and videos, people are able to relive
past events they missed and are able to have a more realistic sense of
how that party, dance, wedding or funeral went. More over the addition of
these extra data apart from the traditional text and voice, are able to
convey the unspoken words; the emotions, after all a picture can say a
1000 words. This report presents a revolutionary communication product
that is supposed to take communication to a whole new level; creating the
opportunity for people to accomplish some task otherwise unimaginable
on the traditional communication systems.
