Abstract
The explosion of storage media size, and spreading of the
internet in the last decade resulted in a huge amount of images
and multimedia material an average user has to deal
with. Traditional use of filenames and directories is just not
sufficient any more. In contrast to the keywording and some
kind of content based image retrieval, we introduce a novel
approach of storing and retrieving images, and other multimedia
material using indexing by placing mechanism. The
idea is to let the user place the images in the 3D environment,
where the user can find the images easily again. The
images can be collected, modified, grouped together,... The
principles described in the paper are implemented in the 3D
Wunderkammer system which is a multi-user client-server
application. The server is completely written in Java and
the client runs in a standard Web browser with a standard
VRML plug-in.
