    I asked the company infotronik for the touch foil, the answer was:

    the problem with the touch foil: the mirror contain metalic components which would cause problems using the touch foil

    the problem with the IR frame is that it can’t be used behind the mirror

    so i thing the best solution would be the IR frame… but in some forums I was reading also that with the mirror can be used either a touch foil or the IR frame… hmmm, now I am confused

      @r0mantic0 Haven’t thought about that at all, so had to try it, and they are indeed correct, the metal coating in the mirror acts as a conductor and anywhere you touch on the mirror gets amplified over the entire area. And thus renders the touchfoil useless.

      Crap.

      Need a new solution for my own mirror now.

        I’m still working on my mirror, but I’ve bought a IR frame from aliexpress and it works good!

        Which size did you get?

          Anyone have a forum or link for the photobooth builds?
          This would also be so fun to build and have but on the coding side I’m no expert. On every thing else I’m handy enough to find solutions I think.

I asked several company’s for info and thay tell me that Projected capacitive will be the best sollution but miror may not contain metal inside.

                      @nat know I miss very late but I now have experience with this!! I bought a touch screen overlay from PQ Labs and then I removed the glass sheet that came with it and replaced it with glass from www.twowaymirrors.com I made sure my glass fit perfectly and boom touchscreen mirror!
