Abstract
Immersive VR environments typically cut the user off from the outside world. Such immersion hampers work for
most users, as they are unable to attend to external events such as phone calls, emails and alerts. In some situations
being cut off from the outside world can be significant safety hazard. We enable access to external events and
stimuli in immersive environments so that the user is aware of such events and is able to attend to them without
having to disengage from the VR gear. We describe a method and apparatus required to receiving phone calls that
arrive on cellular phones in an immersive VR environment.
