Norbert Braun, Ralf Dörner · Fraunhofer-Publica (Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft) · 1998
The transfer of Hypermedia methodologies to audio in the World Wide Web is discussed introducing sonic hyperlinks. Sonic hyperlinks are links annotated within an audio stream that lead to arbitrary multimedia content. A system architecture and implementation relying on commercial WWW technology like RealMedia is presented. The system includes an authoring tool as well as the necessary presentation plugin for an Internet browser. As an example application sonic hyperlinks have been used for WWW - based teaching and training.
