Abstract
Research into 4th generation mobile systems is expected to focus more attention on the development of user centred services as opposed to current network centric services Virtual reality technologies, like augmented reality and TeleReality, will play a greater role in the operation of these new services. By separating the hardware implementation platform from the service applications, it will be possible to deploy a wider range of services, broadening the scope and appeal of the system. This paper describes a service MultiSphere model for mobile users. The Service MultiSphere model uses virtual reality systems that are fundamentally based and coupled with the real world e.g. Augmented Reality and TeleReality. Three spheres of service are described, a Personal User Service Sphere, Local Environment Service Sphere and a Global Network Service. An experimental system based on Visual Cells is used to study the MultiSphere model
