Demonstration of The Future of Text in XR: Year 1
Pages 316 - 317
Abstract
This demonstration is derived from research currently being undertaken by an international team of scientists, artists, and digital humanities scholars about the future of text in XR. In its current stage of development, the project uses WebXR to access a library of documents derived from ACM Hypertext proceedings; select a document or documents to read; manipulate the documents by moving them around in the virtual space; navigate among various linked outputs of the documents, such as abstracts and references; and save the state of the environment.
