The 32" Inch Mirror
-
Progress on the 32" SO far I have the hardware working quite well. It’s quite fast… Yeah I know this is an RPI project but I wanted it for more…
Touchscreen is working awesomely!!
Here’s a sneak peek… [the red box around the humidity is like an alert …it flashes if over a certain number as does the temp]… The extended forecast on the right actually rotates through 7 days of upcoming weather…

Thanks for your reply, may i know have you purchased with or without mirrorOH I’m sorry… This will not be a mirror. It’s just a touch screen with glass and it’s more like a ‘command center’ for my house. BUT I used clear glass on top of the TV then the touch frame on top of the glass. Can’t be sure if a mirror would give the same response because the actual thickness of a real glass mirror is much more than a regular piece of glass.

Well after 9 months here’s my update…
The HestiaPi thermostat is a go… My mirror is touch so I can actually load this in an iFrame and manipulate the controls [tested and working :)].
I have temp and humid sensors on the way so that I can see what’s going on in my entire house :)
Next: create a new sitemap for openHab because here in the US we don’t have our Hot water attached to the Thermostat. Our tanks are stand alone and we control it on the tank itself. So I can cut that site map down quite a bit and only show what I want it to show… :) Not complaining but I thought I had help with this but … guess I"m on my own LOL Sooooooooooooo
Nice having Touch on the mirror :)

@cowboysdude Can you please give a list of hardware? I saw from other comments that you are ordering the touch screen from Alibaba, but what about the monitor and the frame?
Can you please post some pictures so we can see how you assembled them together?
Thanks.

@blaiseliu Well it isn’t ‘assembled’ as of yet…kinda just propped up on my desk LOL
For hardware I’m using a mini itx board with intel chip and ssd hard drive in a small case.
The TV is a Vizio 32" tv…Yes the touch screen works VERY well… no issues there… let me see if I can pull it all together for you and I’ll post it later.

I do not understand if you finally used the touchscreen with a glass or mirror. Ty
