Pay better attention to 0:52 to 1:04. Of course this device would "probably break" -- it's a prototype rig. Did you ever see an early prototype mobile phone? Twenty years ago people probably thought they would never be able to fit that in their back pocket.

Who knows if these guys are on to something important here or not, but at least they're trying.

this is really cool, especially the little things like stretching objects when they're in the mid-screen, that's a good idea :D

This will be a great idea to improve on for the furture as touch screens from the front your fingers blocks the content you selecting with this idea it's GREAT
