Noooo! When I check out a girl, the dress is going to respond. Not good.
Haha :-)
Great, One more camera watching what we do.
I'm sure someone will design the device which will block the tracking for those consumers who do not want to be tracked by this type of garment :-)
It's just so funny to think about these types of issues.
Amazing, had been wondering when it would happen.
Human ingenuity through science is limitless :-)
Amazing how 3D printing as a technology originally intended for rapid protyping industry now applied to fashion, food and so much more. Btw, it is possible to tag as #3dprinting
I see, I may tag next time.
3D printer will probably be a household item within next decade, just like microwave oven :-)
