Touch screen over two way mirror
-
@janthonyds IR frame is the easiest solution.
-
@broberg Where do I get it and is it reflective?
-
@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. -
@broberg said in Touch screen over two way mirror:
IR-frame
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

ireally wish there was a video showing exactly how to construct the two- way mirror to the IR-frame
-
@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

Hi,
I am just inte the planning stage of a smart mirror.
Wish to use a Asus VT207N 19.5 as screen.Do anyone know if the touch will work through the mirror film or a acrylic mirror?
Have anyone done this before?
Please advise,
Carl -
@janthonyds hey sorry i missed this! I see no reason why acryllic wouldn’t work as long as its thin enough to sit beneath the ir overlay!
-
@micklen the mirror absolutely won’t work over if you have acryllic. It may work with some foil as long as you apply it super tightly! Hope this helps please post final result pictures!
