Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a VC/XR connection system that can establish and administer an XR space for a video call. The VC/XR connection system allows users to easily transition from a typical video call experience to the XR space, simply by putting on her artificial reality device. The VC/XR connection system can identify calendared video call events, establish corresponding XR spaces, and create a link between the video call and the XR space. Invitees to the video call that don an artificial reality device can be automatically taken into the XR space. The XR space can A) connect to the video call as a call participant, allowing the video call participants to see into the XR space and B) show a feed of the video call in the XR space, allowing users in the XR space to see the video call participants.
