However, 2D and 3D web content are still typically treated as separate entities with limited interaction. Our research presents a working prototype implementation of a dual-mode user interface for interactive 3D environments. The developed interface allows the user to instantly switch between a traditional hypertext interface and an immersive 3D environment that incorporates 2D HTML elements. The results from an initial user study show that 2D and dual-mode interfaces allow for quicker retrieval of information than 3D websites alone and result in higher user satisfaction. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01679827/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01679827/file/421765_1_En_47_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01679827 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01679827 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-10516
