Wake up the mirror and put it to sleep?

[wizz]

I just wounder as i want to have a touch sensor of some kind when i get to the mirror i just touch the sensor and the screen wakes up and also when leaving the mirror in the same way just tap and it go back to sleep.

What do i need (Hardware) for that and is that possible and how do i do that settings?

The mirror also have to be scheduled for some times during the day how do i do that?

[wizz]

No one have any tips on solution for this?

@wizz set up a chronjob in linux and maybe use MMM-Button for the touch?

This module is what you need. Along with one of the pir sensors, as linked to in the readme.

If you dont want it to start everytime you pass by your mirror, then you just place the sensor pointing up or down, and then you change swipe your hand in front of the sensor to activate the mirror.

Thanks will check if i can get hold of one in a store i Sweden today, if not i have to make an order online.

If you cant find one in sweden, then I use to order from thePiHut as it is located within the EU and therefore free from import tax, (atleast until Brexit)

[mortenbirkelund]

yes, i believe it should work along with a raspberry pi.
