N2 - This paper outlines doctoral research that investigates the use of magnetic forces to achieve directly deformable interaction on tabletop interactive surfaces. The problem is defined as being the lack of tangibility in touch surfaces and the lack of touch surfaces that feel soft to the touch. A survey of related work is presented along with a description of the chosen approach of using magnetic forces to implement a directly deformable, soft, interactive surface.
