The User Avatar in LiquidEarth serves as a 3D virtual representation of each User and their device during real-time Live Sessions. Depending on whether the user is on a desktop, tablet, or using an XR headset, the avatar will take on the shape of the respective device, providing additional context for interactions.

Next to it, the microphone icon denotes an active voice chat, while the muted speaker icon suggests the user's speaker is silenced. The colored beam extending from the device is the user's pointer, similar to a laser pointer.

In essence, the avatar also represents the user’s camera, with its orientation corresponding to the camera perspective direction. This setup offers insight into what a particular user may be focusing on within the shared Space. The avatar's position and angle relative to the shared space indicate the user camera's relative perspective, providing a sense of presence and spatial orientation for all users.

To differentiate between users, each avatar is outlined by a unique color. Correspondingly, the User Pointer, which resembles a laser pointer, will have the same color.

As part of future enhancements, LiquidEarth plans to introduce avatar customization, allowing users to personalize their virtual representations further.
