Maybe instrument the stones?   There is something satisfying about their physicality.   I can see using the projection for a remote game, but I want to use 'real' stones on my side of the virtual world.  Some network interface through the board where they could talk to their neighbors, perhaps have some (very) rudimentary understanding of what was going on.  Maybe project little faces on them, if they were in some jeopardy they'd look upset, maybe vibrate or something, etc.

Ok, going to go have weird dreams now.

Is there a (paid) market?  

Imagine on step better than the image below and imagine the recognition of the "hand" and remove it real-time from the projection.


Apart from a bunch of neat stuff, see The Mix Reality Goban at:

At the Digital Contents Expo 2010 in Tokyo – which goes through October 17 – a man plays go as the images of the pieces are placed and moved by a projector with motion-sensitive camera sensors.

I want one!!!  What would it take?

Thanks
