[QUOTE="darjr, post: 8855944, member: 52905"] Mine would be something that I could use my existing table and battle mat for. I could throw terrain and miniatures as well as draw extemporaneously upon it. Local players would have the normal table top experience but remote players would see the table on a screen. They could indicate on screen where they want things moved. Sure I'd have to move them but that's OK. Next it'd be awesome if it detected the miniatures and lines so they could look at a digital version on their end. Doesn't need to be 3d, 2d presentation top down would be fine. I almost have that with Vorpal Board. It's really rather cool. But I dropped it because I can get nearly the same now with my phone camera and discord. Ironically the key was the phone arm that Vorpal Board sold me. The only things I don't have is an easy way for the remote player to indicate where they are pointing at, but I think I can solve for that by numbering/lettering the grid. Second is neither option detects miniatures nor do they digitize it, it's still a camera feed sent across the net. Thankfully even low end computers and internet feeds seem to handle it OK enough to be usable anyway. Here's VB's link for those interested.
