Interacting with physical model
Haptic forearm and hand exoskeleton that limits movement when fingers are touching a virtual object. Head-mounted display would enable interaction without your arms and fingers getting in the way of the image. In fact camera could sense where hand is and remove image so your body shows through looking like it is on top of image. Could be very portable system too.
