Touchable holograms

To my mind, the most interesting thing isn't the holograms, it's the computer-mediated touch, which is done with supersonics somehow. I don't know what the theoretical limits there are, and a fast google didn't turn up anything more on the subject, but if reasonable amounts of pressure and precision are feasible, it's going to be an amazing tech.
