Daimaru, a departmental store in Japan, has put up a flower installation it calls "Flower Mirror," which tracks and blooms to mirror people as they move in front of it.

The installation relies on 800 movable motors, that push out a secondary layer of darker flowers over the lighter hued ones.

Each time someone walks past, sensors detect their silhouette, and the corresponding flowers open in bloom.

These letters for example, spell out "Daimaru."

The installation measures 4m wide and 3m long (16 x 10ft), and was put up in celebration of Daimaru's 300th anniversary.
