Wonder if it would be plausible having light sensors on a tablet and base shadows on the room's available light?
Having a table flat on a surface and have UI "shadows" move around with light changes would likely be a pretty immersive effect.

Wouldn't have been shocked if they'd had a prototype with the whole UI doing it around iOS 4/5. But only the Music.app volume knob part shipped (iOS 4 IIRC the brushed metal on the knob had a tilt based lighting effect).
