We would argue that this criterion has been met.  \subsubsection{Spatial reconfigurability of devices}  At the current moment in time, our devices are only functional for one specific purpose and cannot be reconfigured spatially. Again this is something that could easily be addressed in future developments of the system.  \subsubsection{Conclusion on tangible interface eligibility}
