I really doubt it happening today or in a years' time. There's digital implementations of games but they don't have the same feeling as playing the game by hand. I'd pick up a card or draw something from a drawstring bag 1000 times for every 1 time I'd tap and drag a card or drag a token from a bag on a screen, and I'd think that's a pretty popular opinion.

I think a mixture of both would be cool, like augmenting card games by placing the cards on a surface that has a screen or an overhead projector, but you're right in that a large part of playing a board game is the physicality of it.
Sigh, with Google glass I thought AR was finally going to become a thing, but there still aren't any lightweight/slim AR glasses that are readily available.
