It’s also worth mentioning the DGT Centuar board. Uses lights to indicate moves but is a stand-alone device with no internet connectivity. Maybe DGT will use this tech for a smart board in the future?
You know those doctors office toys with the matrix of pins that you stick your face into? Imagine one of those as the board where the pieces "emerge" up out of it.
One solution if inelegant would be to just move pieces out of the way then move them back in place. It should be possible to find a path using this mechanism though I’m not sure how many pieces you’d have to move in the worst case.
