Abstract
A conference system enables a real-time communication session between two or more participants. During the real-time communication session, a participant device requests to transfer the real-time communication session to a device in which an identity of the device is unknown. The participant device displays a visual code that is scanned by the device in which the identity is unknown. Based on the scan of the visual code, the conference system transfers the real-time communication session such that it is continued between the device in which the identity is unknown and the one or more devices of the remaining participants of the conference.
