The concept has been around for awhile, but this is the first I've seen of any prototyping. I just finished a (fictional) book about an aircraft which used a system that evaluated the surrounding environment and then emulated it on a pixellated covering material, rendering it perfectly matched to the sky, ground, terrain, etc, depending on where the primary viewer was located.

Cool idea.
