Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to creating and administering artificial reality collaborative working environments and providing interaction modes for them. An XR work system can provide and control such artificial reality collaborative working environments to enable, for example, A) links between real-world surfaces and XR surfaces; B) links between multiple real-world areas to XR areas with dedicated functionality; C) maintaining access, while inside the artificial reality working environment, to real-world work tools such as the user's computer screen and keyboard; D) various hand and controller modes for different interaction and collaboration modalities; E) use-based, multi-desk collaborative room configurations; and F) context-based auto population of users and content items into the artificial reality working environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure can allow users to participate in artificial reality (XR) coworking spaces on two-dimensional (2D) interfaces, such as computers, mobile devices, etc. Users can join a “quiet” virtual coworking space in which they can see representations of other users within the space (including XR users), but without sound. From the virtual coworking space, a user can request to start a conversation with another user, which can send a non-audible notification to the other user, thus being less intrusive to the other user. The other user can join the conversation at their convenience, and be transported to a virtual conference room with the requesting user to engage in audio and/or video discussion. Other users within the virtual coworking space can see the attendees within the virtual conference room, and join the virtual conference room by being invited, or simply clicking to join, without permission needed.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure can map a virtual desk corresponding to a user's real-world desk into a virtual working space. The virtual working space can include pods of individual workspaces with each user seeing into their coworkers' individual workspaces in virtual reality (VR). Some implementations can allow users to merge their individual virtual workspaces into a shared virtual workspace, such as a shared virtual meeting table in the virtual workspace. For example, a user can invite another user to merge workspaces, and, upon acceptance, some implementations can map each user's real-world desk to the shared virtual meeting table in VR. Once the shared virtual meeting table is formed, other users can join, causing the shared virtual meeting table to further expand into the virtual workspace.
