Background

Hyperreality tries to achieve a vision in which virtuality and reality are seamlessly blended as if they were one, with no distinction on where one ends and the other begins; blending physical reality with virtual reality and human intelligence with artificial intelligence [1].

Virtual and augmented reality are used daily as standalone applications in areas such as computer gaming and mobile devices. Companies such as Google, Nokia and Microsoft are investing in and developing technology and interfaces to connect the virtual and real worlds…
