<p>I'm trying to setup a way to do video conferencing between two individuals. The tricky part is that the users need to be able to touch the screen and have the other user see their hand on their end. The only way this will work is if the camera is behind the screen filming through it. This has led us to this theoretical setup: camera + projector on one side of a transparent screen / person on the other side.
The issues that we've run into are:</p>

<ul>
<li>we don't know of a screen material that will allow for a rear projector that will also allow the filming through it</li>
<li>the image being projected onto the individual</li>
</ul>

<p>Please let me know if there are any screens that come to mind or an alternative setup or if I should stop right now.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
