Looks like that's not a new idea, although it still seems to be fairly
rare.
Kevin Kelly talked about them in 2006:

Ed Vielmetti, here in Ann Arbor, picked up on the idea and brought it to
the attention of people here. We have part of the idea implemented in our
campus library, but not the app part.

The closest thing I found to what you describe is this, using the CardStar
app.
