      We recently installed a new front door which has all frosted glass. My wife was wanting a way to see who is at the door before answering it. After doing some googling I happened to come across this site. After a couple of weeks playing with the software, working out a few bugs, and testing camera setups, I’ve come up with something we’re both happy with.

      For my project I’m using the following modules
      clock
      calendar_monthly
      holidays
      compliments
      weather
      MMM-RTSPstream
      MMM-CalendarWeek
      MMM-BackgroundSlideshow
      MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
      MMM-GroveGestures
      MMM-MyCommute
      MMM-pages
      MMM-Pollen
      MMM-Remote-Control
      MMM-Trello

      The case I designed to match an existing table in our hallway. The drawer face is false and covers the pi and electrical plug, which I’m in the process of wiring, but no wiring will show. The drawer panel also has a small hole for the gesture sensor, which I’m using to navigate pages mostly.

      I’ve got a Smartthings hub and several motion sensors throughout the house. I’m using the sensors to toggle the monitor on/off as we enter/leave the room.

      I’ve added some shadow boxes to all the modules to make them easier to see against the background images.

            The camera is this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074N2TRRR

            The motion sensors are connected to my smartthings hub, I think they are the iris zigbee motion sensors. I documented the configuration here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11065/using-smartthings-motion-sensor-to-turn-on-off-monitor

                Electrical plug installed, used a usb charger plug to save space, the Hubbel brand has a 3.8 amp version, which resolves the lightning bolt from displaying.

                BTW, the gesture sensor didn’t work behind the wood panel. I’m guessing that the waveform is getting absorbed by the wood even with the through hole for the sensor. I’ll work on 3d printing a coer and mounting it on the bottom instead.

                    Great job! I really liked it.

                    I am not a wizard. I am just learning.
