@Advokaten
Thank you very much for the kind offer. But having had a good sleep or two over the issue I managed to find peace with myself again ;-) All in all it’s just a broken mirror…
I did order a second mirror along with the first and decided to simply change my plans for its use. I went to my local glass shop and asked them to cut it in half. That way I will end up with 2 mirrors. Ok, they are different in size now, but hey? I will end up with 2 mirrors still :)

Again, I really do appreciate your offer as it proves a hell of a lot in regards of community spirit. Especially since it is not the fault of any of you. I do hope though that you do not bother that I have to turn down your offer. Everything is fine.

Thanks for the pictures.

What do you mean by “old mirror glass” and “new mirror glass”? Anyway, both pictures look very good, I hope that even gesture detection trough the glass should be possible. Can you also provide details how you attached the raspi-camera (regular or also noir variant?) at the back of the mirror?

@Hawking

like @Goldjunge_Chriz said and i mentioned, the new mirror glass is the one from @Goldjunge_Chriz .

My setup is like this.

[Advokaten]

@lolobyte, and the front/side?? Thanks!

[lolobyte]

[lolobyte]

@Advokaten maybe this will help you!

Hi together,

long weekend - perfect to finish the mirror hardware.
Please find attached some pictures of the assembly + first impressions of the running mirror.
(due to i still struggling to bring my java software to the raspberry, there are some cables to the laptop who will disappear in the final setup).

Overall I´m satisfied, I believe I need to play a little bit with the light conditions and install a spot on top of the mirror to compensate the light absorbation of the mirror.

Might it be possible to craft a glass working like a “silver reflected sun-glass”?

[lolobyte]

Hi @mantha , great to see your mirror goal without any broken corners. ;-)

Nice work. Great idea with your AL-Rail.

What kind of modules you are using? Standard?
I don’t think so!

[mantha]

No it is a own development! The objective of the project was to get in touch with advanced AI and IoT.
I struggled to get this working with Node.js and python. So I failed back to Java with a Javafx frontend.

[Binog]

hey look awesome ! Are you willing to share that with the community?

[mantha]

@Binog sure, once when it is finished. Currently there are some “workarounds” like hard coded login to mercedes connect.me for controlling the auxheat what prevent me from sharing…

[sero]

@mantha
The image of the car interieur is from the Mercedes Connect Me webapp, isn’t it? 👍 Did you manage to show/control the auxheat from your mirror?

@mantha Nice work! Can you please post a picture from the rear side?

[Woody]

Hi all you DIYer !
got my mirror finished this weekend and just want to show you the result. Unfortunately, the mirrorglas itself is not what I’ve expected, in particuler under my light conditions it’s to dark. Maybe I’ll replace it in the future. Anyway this should not come over as criticism, @Goldjunge_Chriz made a great job and and I want to say thanks again.

[Advokaten]

@Woody what happens if you add a light source above or in front of the mirror? Does it seem “clearer”??

[Advokaten]

@mantha I love the design you made with the frame. Any possibility of revealing where you found the materials (particularly the aluminum)? Also, what size is the mirror and monitor? :) Thanks

[Woody]

@Advokaten Yes, I tried several light scenarios with different but not satisfying results.

[A Former User]

@Woody Are you happy with your mirror choice?
