Our project is made to help people empathize with sea turtles that often get caught in nets and drown from the lack of air. The dress has a motor in the back, which spins and would ideally tighten the dress around you, like a corset. We also thought your arms would get pulled to your side in a similar fashion but we didn't get that far.  The tightening dress makes you feel like a sea turtle caught in a net.
