I always wanted something like this to generate terrain for FPS shooting game. So size of this would be lets say 2mx2m and it would be able to create walls on which I could lean to. And of course in combination with Oculus Rift. Of course when I walk in some direction this terrain would have to move in other way so I'm always in middle...

Imagine a future where screens in front of you change and shift to bring you different textures, objects, and figures to plan, design, and engineer effortlessly all in real time and full color.

This is just the first step.
