Ah, yes, what a nice way to be sliced into a thousand pieces at once if you trip. Even more fun if they get knocked out of their retention mode.

Is there a rubbing alcohol dispenser that sprays from the adjacent room after you go through? In case the first set of blood-curdling screams aren’t loud enough.

Just use a bunch of sewing tape measures. They’re flexible, and not sharp.

Plus, they come in all sorts of colours.

I bet if you put some automation behind it with a raspberry pi or something this would be pretty cool. Program some different doorways etc…

Thing is, it’s really not private enough to make a difference aside of looking and being cool to show to someone.

Ooh, that’s actually a pretty good idea. But it would require each “tape” to have its own motor, right?

There are ways to drive multiple things with a one or two motors but I’d question if it’d be worth the trouble.

That sounds either expensive, or very unreliable. If you’re unlucky, both.
