Abstract
This paper proposes an innovative concept of community, called Mirror Reality, which is formed by the seamless interaction between users of physical space and virtual world. The Mirror Reality is relying on a portal to achieve the data translation and communication between virtual and reality worlds. This study employs the Ontology technology to analyze unified representation of objects and events in both virtual world and physical space. Furthermore, the research issues of creating a Mirror Reality are also identified. The portal that is implemented from the analysis is called Portality to emphasize its role between virtuality and reality. In other words, Portality takes care all of the data conversion and processing to permit the interoperability between two totally different worlds. Finally, the prototype of Mirror Reality for the university campus with its Portality is illustrated at the end.
