learning device

The "augmented pool" section of the video shows what could be an excellent learning tool. It kinda reminds me of that "spider" laser device that used to be sold. I saw this vid and I though fellow AZers would get a kick out of it.

The augmented reality lines look a lot like the "tracking" lines in virtual pool.

For racking, they need a way to get the balls out of the hopper/pockets. I wonder if they've tapped the table.
