Abstract

Methods, systems, and storage media for initiating communication between artificial reality devices are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: enable a discovery setting by a first user wearing a first artificial reality device; detect a presence of at least a second user wearing a second artificial reality device; determine a familiarity level of the first user with the second user; and in response to the familiarity level breaching a familiarity threshold, initiate a call with the second artificial reality device by the first artificial reality device, the call including an interaction in an artificial reality environment accessed via the first artificial reality device and the second artificial reality device.
