System and method for dynamically expanding conferencing capabilities and facilitating on demand transactions within social network environments
A web-based, online session system is provided in which a host server manages a multi-participant session. A plurality of participating devices may join the online session using a web-based interface and receive session content (e.g., video, audio, text, graphics, etc.) via the web-based interface. A user of a participating device may dynamically expand its resources/capabilities during an ongoing online session by adding accessory/supporting devices under its own participant account to the session. The added devices may communicate directly with the host server via a separate stream than the participating device. Additionally, the participating device may also transfer its complete participation in the online session to another device via the web-based interface.
Systems and methods for assisting users of artificial reality platforms
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include creating, by an artificial reality platform, a link configured to invite an invitee user to join an inviter user in an instance of an artificial reality application at a current location of the inviter user in the instance. The method may additionally include sharing the link, by the artificial reality platform, with the invitee user, and receiving, by the artificial reality platform, an indication of an activation of the link by the invitee user. The method may further include launching, by the artificial reality platform at least partly in response to receipt of the indication, the instance in an artificial reality device of the invitee user at the current location of the inviter user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
LIVE MEETING ASSISTANCE FOR CONNECTING TO A NEW MEMBER
Meetings conducted over a network are commonplace. It is also commonplace that the participants of a meeting cannot resolve an issue that could be resolved by a non-attending party. Accordingly, systems and methods are provided wherein an unresolvable issue (for the attendees of a meeting) may be resolved by an absent participant. A message generated comprising a summary of the issue and automatically sent to the absent participant. A reply is then presented to the meeting, which may be an answer or other information or action, or the absent participant may elect to join the meeting and interact with the others in the meeting.
REAL-TIME GEOSPATIAL COLLABORATION SYSTEM
Systems and methods are provided for generating virtual three-dimensional environments that allow for simultaneous and collaborate interaction amongst users that utilize virtual reality systems, augmented reality systems, and standard desktop systems. As users interact with elements presented within these virtual three-dimensional environments, these interactions and changes to these elements are propagated to other users within these environments in real time.
Joining an Existing Audio Session
An audio output device may join an existing session between a source device and another audio output device. The source device may transmit audio data associated with an audio session, using a first frequency band, to a first wireless audio output device and transmit connection information associated with the audio session to a second wireless audio output device over a second frequency band. The second frequency band differs from the first frequency band and the connection information allows the second wireless audio output device to join the audio session. After transmitting the connection information, the source device may transmit subsequent audio data associated with the audio session to the first wireless audio output device and the second wireless audio output device.
Media downlink transmission control method and related device
A media downlink transmission control method and a related device, the method including receiving a remote media reception message sent by an authorized terminal, where the remote media reception message includes a target user identifier, determining a first target media stream based on the remote media reception message, and sending the first target media stream to a destination terminal corresponding to the target user identifier.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MULTIMEDIA COMMUNICATION WHILE ACCESSING NETWORK RESOURCES
Systems and methods are configured to receive an indication that an anchor is to be positioned at a first location on a webpage. An interaction rule associated with the anchor is received, comprising a rule that content is to be displayed in response to the webpage being scrolled to a first position. A preview of the webpage is generated with the anchor at the first location in conjunction with the previewed webpage. Automatically generated code is configured to cause the anchor to be visible at the first location of the webpage when accessed by a user browser. In response to activation of a publication control, the code is embedded in the webpage, wherein in response to a first user browser of a first user device accessing the webpage, and the first user scrolling the webpage to the first position, the content specified by the content specification is rendered.
