URICA! II (User Response Interactive Collation Assistant) was an interactive collation program for the Macintosh. It semi-automated text collation, and assisted text comparison by 'tagging' variants or automatically reconciling small differences. URICA! II built upon the foundation of URICA!, the first iteration of the program.

VAnnotatoR is a system that massively supports the annotation of multimedia, multimodal networks of linguistic and object-related data in virtual 3D environments. VAnnotatoR allows for segmenting and linking texts and images with other multimedia, multimodal data to ultimately create spatial hypertexts. It can be used to support concrete technical applications, e.g. the reconstruction of 3D scenes from texts as a preparatory step for the training of Text2Scene systems, or for applications in the digital humanities, such as the spatial reconstruction and linking of historical scenes or biographies with corresponding media content, such as images or 3D reconstructions of historical buildings. The entire system is interactively accessible with VR glasses in Virtual Reality (VR) and can be controlled and experienced accordingly. VAnnotatoR uses TextAnnotator as technological backbone and thus all its functions for annotation, task management, annotation evaluation as well as for collaborative and simultaneous processing of resources. Furthermore, VAnnotatoR uses TextImager to benefit from its NLP routines for automatic text analysis. VAnnotatoR is implemented on the basis of Unity3D and OpenVR and therefore runs with both systems and several VR glasses – it was tested on Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest, HTC Vive and HTC Vive Cosmos under Windows 10. A demonstration of its usage can be found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBUg8mHT0iI

Version Variation Visualization is an interrelated set of free, usable prototypes for visualizing and exploring culturally important works in relation to their world-wide translations. It allows users to explore either the inlcuded corpora or their own texts via time-maps, alignment maps, parallel views or a concordance view accommodating multiple translations in the same viewer. Version Variation Visualization is particularly valuable for its focus on translation and re-translation of text, and its capacity to accommodate and show multiple version of the same text or passage.
