Seamless Collaborative Computing Between Tables and Tablets: nSquared Presenter -Video

I came across the following video about nsquare's presenter application. It looks like it has potential.  It supports "seamless" collaboration between people, multimedia content, interactive tables, interactive touch screens, and tablet devices.

TEI'12 Program (pdf)

Below is the description of TEI 2012 from the conference website:

"TEI 2012 is the sixth international conference dedicated to presenting the latest results in tangible, embedded, and embodied interaction. It is being held 19th to 22nd February 2012 at Queen's Human Media Lab in Kingston, Ontario, Canada."

"The work presented at TEI addresses HCI issues, design, interactive art, user experience, tools and technologies, with a strong focus on how computing can bridge atoms and bits into cohesive interactive systems. The intimate size of this single-track conference provides a unique forum for exchanging ideas and presenting innovative work through talks, interactive exhibits, demos, hands-on studios, posters, art installations and performances."

"This year's conference features submissions in the area of Organic User Interfaces (OUI). Reflecting this, the theme of this year's conference is "fold unfold"."

I would love to attend TEI someday!
