My IKEA Ribba based 50x50 Mirror
-
Hi Guys,
i nearly finished my mirror.
Shopping List:
Frame 10€?
Mirror 100€
RaspberryPi 2
Wireless Stick 5€
Display Controller and powersupply from ebay ~30€
Display 1280x800 from old notebook 0€
Step Down Regulator from ebay 2€
PIR Sensor from ebay 2€
50cm HDMI cable 3€
some little stuff ~5€I build this mirror on a CLAA154WB05AN display out of a Sony VAIO VGN-FZ31J notebook. Unfortunately it’s a glare display, which is not the brightest, but its working so far. For powering the raspberry i used a step down regulator, which is regulating the 12v input power from the display powersupply to 5v for the rasp.
For the controller switches i drilled some holes in to the frame and extended the switches with m4 plastic screws to reach out of the frame.

looks great :) can you please tell me how thick is your mirror ?
And also the frame itself on ikea page i found it’s 4,5cm but after you put there glass how much real space left ? -
Hi,
the glas is 4mm.
Inside of the ribba frame is a kind of a subframe, which you can see on the seconds picture.
I removed the subframe, inserted the glas and readded the subframe. Glas + Subframe then have the same height as the preinstalled metal clips to fix the backpanel.
