MindRoom is implemented with online cloud services and WebGL, including exhibition space construction module, exhibition hotspot editing module, exhibition space roaming module and exhibition space management module. Curators can build virtual exhibitions by selecting scenes, adding and editing ICONS, and binding hypermedia links to ICONS. Audience visit virtual exhibition by browsing the paintings, triggering ICONS, and interacting with hypermedia.
