If every image in your 'virtual pool' was, as in the video, a photograph of exceptional resolution and clarity, this might just work. But like a CAD package, the user input required to get the results you want is beyond the capabilities of most users.

Anyone remember the Virtual Reality craze from the late 1990s, where everyone would be walking up and down virtual streets and buying goods from virtual stores? Sometimes people prefer things just as they are.
