Abstract
Private real-time communications are provided between meeting attendees during a meeting using one or more augmented reality headsets. An augmented reality headset worn by a sending meeting attendee continuously monitors a current direction of the sending meeting attendee's gaze during the meeting, and detects that the sending meeting attendee has selected a receiving meeting attendee when the current direction of the sending attendee's gaze intersects with a location of the receiving meeting attendee. The augmented reality headset worn by the sending meeting attendee also receives a messaging command issued by the sending meeting attendee, also based on monitoring the sending meeting attendee's gaze during the meeting. In response to the messaging command, the augmented reality headset worn by the sending meeting attendee automatically transmits the private message to a device associated with the receiving meeting attendee, such as an augmented reality headset worn by the receiving meeting attendee.
