My Custom Smart Mirror.

@electros
The app is only a wrapper pointing to my mirror at http://192.168.1.222:8080/remote.html. This is only able to be done as I have statically assigned my mirror as the .222 address. I could run a port forward on my firewall and allow it to work from outside the house but I haven’t got a need to since I wouldn’t be standing in view of the mirror and it’s a security vulnerability. Let me know if you have further questions. -
Nicely done.
Is that the PIR Sensor at the top of the mirror?

@azscram
No, that was my Echo Dot. The PIR is somewhat visible in the second picture. There is a small ribbon cable going from the Pi to the PIR. It’s on the right side so anytime I want it on I just wave my hand on right of the mirror. It’s incredibly sensitive so I never have a problem waking it up.I am in process of adding a PS3 Eye cam and using MMM-Hotword and MMM-AssistantMk2. Might even go as far as training facial recognition.

nice setup. one question what module did u use for background ? I have MMM-EasyPix but do not know how to put pic to fullscreen. Can you share your config ?
-
You could use MMM-EasyPix as a background module but that is really not its purpose. Just try this module.

thanks works better :)

I use MMM-BackgroundSlideshow. Here is list of my modules:
Update: MMM-BackgroundSlideshow stopped working for me so I switched to MMM-EasyBack. -
Looks realy great, good work!
What monitor did you use? Mine is bleeding it’s backlight through the mirror, which isn’t the case with your screen, according to the pictures.
-
@hannes23 So long as the light in front of the mirror is brighter than the monitor behind the mirror it won’t bleed through. I am using an old LCD screen I had lying around but an OLED would produce the best results as the black on those is truly black. I only get bleed through when I turn the light off in my room. If the light is on, all looks good.
