Abstract
A concept for a new business communication environment consisting of a shared and interactive multiuser virtual space that consists of a computer-graphics-based virtual space and video-based objects is proposed. This combination results in an extremely flexible environment for remote human collaboration. The human interface, which entails walking and interacting within the virtual space and offers a new dimension in daily communication activities, is described.<>
