HyperReal: a hypermedia model for mixed reality
Romero L., Correia N.  Hypertext and hypermedia (Proceedings of the fourteenth ACM conference, Nottingham, UK, Aug 26-30, 2003)2-9.2003.Type:Proceedings
Date Reviewed: Nov 14 2003

A generic hypermedia model that is used as framework for building context aware and mixed reality applications is presented in this paper. The model specifies a base structure for the relation between spaces, either real or virtual, and supports contextual mechanisms. The model abstracts the details of each information item, providing a generic interface for navigation and information structuring in mixed reality. The hypermedia model used an object-oriented framework (prototype) based on the Dexter Hypertext Reference Model.

Romero and Correia developed two categories of mixed reality applications in order to test the hypermedia model, namely, a gallery information assistant and a game that takes place in the gallery environment. Nevertheless, there are weaknesses: the lack of validation and the seemingly poor quality of the prototype.
