            @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!

              PQ Labs

              I looked in their store and could not find the overlay, how much did it cost and is it a special order item?

              also what Gen was it?

                @Hoosierdad google Peau Productions touch screen overlay it should come up! But yes you have to email them for an invoice! I ordered the no longer posted G4S overlay and it works great as it’s the only one with sizes small 32"

                  @ranger33 so you built a magic mirror with touch capability did your Fram go around the glass it self or behind the glass behind the monitor?

                    @Hoosierdad Yes i built a magic mirror with touch capability, I’d be happy to send you pictures! I built my frame over top of the monitor and the glass so the only thing seen was the screen. It went over top the glass.

                              So did anyone figure out how they use a two-way mirror as a touch screen?

                                @janthonyds IR frame is the easiest solution.

                                    @janthonyds the ir frame goes above the mirror-glass (i.e the ir diodes are mounted in the frame around the mirror).
                                    Google IR-frame, or IR touch and similar and you will get lot’s of results and information.

                                      They have two kinds according to my research, the Infrared Touch Frame Overlays and Integration Kits, The latter does not have glass. Is this the one I install over the top of my two-way mirror? I appreciate your help by the way

                                          @janthonyds so the first time I did it I got the full thing glass and all. The glass was really just held in by glue so using a screwdriver I pried the glass out. Then I measured exactly in mm the glass. I ordered two way glass amd it fit snugly inside! Hope that helped I can send some pics of it!

                                            Sorry people, I got another question, I read a lot of your replies and I’ve noticed that you mention “glass” two-way mirror as far as replacing the glass in the overlay frame . My question is can you use acrylic instead or does it have to be glass? Another thing, they sell the IR frame without glass, is this a good idea? Thanks people
