After watching the video, another one came up in the feed (by a different group I think) that was about just this thing.
in an OA context, this sort of tech (actually a more sophisticated future version) might be used in Reality Rooms to produce some haptic experiences.
You might also use it in some kind of immersive display and control system for complex devices or installations or for handing complex data. Maybe weather simulations (or active monitoring of actual weather systems or events), fluid flow simulations, etc.
