Abstract

During the last thirty years a variety of hypertext approaches and virtual environments -- some virtual hypertext environments -- have been developed and discussed. Although the development of virtual and augmented reality technologies is rapid and improving, and many technologies can be used at affordable conditions, their usability for hypertext systems has not yet been explored. At the same time, even for virtual three-dimensional virtual and augmented environments, there is no generally accepted concept that is similar or nearly as elegant as hypertext. This gap will have to be filled in the next years and a good concept should be developed; in this article we aim to contribute in this direction and also introduce a prototype for a possible implementation of criteria for virtual hypertext simulations.
