Intel showed off experimental designer Anouk Wipprecht's latest Spider Dress.
"Fashion and tech are merging at the moment, beyond blinking dresses or cute skirts, she said. 'I'm showing how fashion can be thought provoking, something that pushes people to think and share their feelings."
The 3D-printed experimental dress crowned at the collar with robotic spider legs which move.
"Spider Dress acts as the interface between the body and the external world," said Wipprecht. "It uses technology and the garment as a medium of interaction."
The so-called animatronic arachnid limbs on the Spider Dress know exactly when someone is invading the wearer's personal space. They extend to suggest boundaries.

Damien's note: Yes, because if the robotic legs didn't move, we would all be rushing over to be as close as possible to the person wearing this, right?
