Communicating within a VR environment

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computer system, configure the computer system to perform operations comprising:

• maintaining a communication session between users, each user utilizing a different user device to participate in the communication session;
• receiving first input, via a first communication platform, from a first user of the users intended to be shared in the communication session to the users;
• determining a communication platform for each user of the users participating in the communication session based at least in part on device information provided by respective user devices of the users of the communication session and content of the first input, the device information indicating device capabilities for the respective user devices;
• transforming the first input from a first media type of the first communication platform to one or more different media types of one or more different communication platforms corresponding to the determined communication platform for each user of the users participating in the communication session thereby enabling different user devices associated with the users to consume the content of the first input;
• and
• transmitting the transformed first input via the one or more different communication platforms to the users participating in the communication session.

A computer system comprising:

• a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions;
• a processor in communication with the memory configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
• maintain a communication session that enables entities to communicate;
• receive first input via a first device from an entity participating in the communications session;
• identify a first media type of a first communication platform to associate with the entity based on device information corresponding to the first device and first content of the first input, the device information indicating device capabilities of the first device;
• receive second input via a second device from the entity participating in the communication session;
• identify a second media type of a second communication platform to associate with the entity based on the updated device information corresponding to the second device and second content of the second input, the updated device information indicating the device capabilities of the second device;
• and
• update the communication session such that subsequent input provided by the entities of the communication session are provided to the entity utilizing the second communication platform.
