The video is here:

Its a very high end augmented VR system (not multi-user though!), but shows the
real potential of immersive touch on surfaces (coupled with haptics &
stereoscoptics - blog reaction here - http://tinyurl.com/25y3d5) .... I think
in time we can get reasonably close in the K-12 classroom to immulating yhis
stuff - as a very (very) crude example -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QguN_AoKleE (though not stereoscopic yet, and a
using a non-haptic stylus) - not terribly far off.
