3D controls for 2D screen, with tactility you have never seen.. felt before. Or have you?

Ok. I admit you just might have felt up those knobs (umpf) before but I’m betting it wasn’t your laptops screen? Apparently guys at Griton Labs weren’t happy with the current state either, so what they came up with solution called Sense Surface, which basically enables real world(tm) controllers for digital control tables. Apparently you just smack your knob (not that!) to the screen, at the point where your i.e. digital presentation of rotary switch resides and start turning, and lo’ the digital version follows the movements of your knob. (Still, not that! Though, that would make kinda interesting flight simulator solutions..)
Head up to the full post to see the video of them knobs in action.
