    The problem with this sort of video is that it adds nothing new.

    Yes, we all want a minority report style interface but really does it help us work. This appeals to the PowerPoint Addicts - not the people collecting the data, or making those presentations.

    And who's going to pay to put "Microsoft Surface" into the very pavements?

    Agh. This pie in the sky stuff just annoys me.

    Pie in the sky is a huge part of the design process. If 1% is innovative enough or useful enough to make it into a product the process was a success. Visualizations such as these are designed to start the conversation and foster innovation in others.

    The next step is easier if you are thinking 50 steps ahead.

    You see a Microsoft surface on the floor I see a shape projected by the handheld device. Though it might be his crotch projector fitted to his motion pants.
