Abstract

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable media are provided for managing an extended reality conference. In one implementation, the computer-readable medium may include instructions to cause a processor to: facilitate a multi-participant video conference; enable, via a wearable extended reality appliance, viewing of a first environment representing a physical space and a second peripheral environment; enable a display of participants in the second peripheral environment; receive a first selection of a first participant in the second peripheral environment; move a virtual representation of the first participant to the first environment while a second participant remains in the second peripheral environment; receive a second selection of the second participant in the second peripheral environment; and move a virtual representation of the second participant to the first environment.
