Intel is researching dynamic physical rendering, using silicon to create three dimensional objects that can be touched and changed.
The application is still very sci-fi, but the idea behind the project is that it will create what could be described as a touchable, malleable hologram.
Story and video: The Test Bed.

The Egyptians, mayans and Aztecs knew more than enough about physical holgrams and so they created their civilizations perfectly never looking for technology to help them.
