      Hey everyone, I use the facerecognition module from paviro to switch between different userprofiles. The softwarepart is ready. Now I would like to build a large bathroom-mirror, preferably wihtout any visible frame.

      1. How do you integrate/hide your camera in the frame (if you use one)?
      2. Work the camera behind the mirror glas?

          Yes pi noir works behind the glass.
          I’ts a bit darker but you can recognize the persons or other objects in the front of the mirror.

          My Mirror is on a wooden plate and i drilled a hole for the cam.

                So are you happy with your NoIR camera behind the mirror glass?
                I am still unsure if I should buy one or if I skip this. On the other hand I am tempted to do so and integrate it into my mirror design right at the beginning.

                  Yes, sure. It solve many of my task build on my mirror.

                  security cam with IR_LED’s for night-view possibilities, Motion detection, enabling/disabling mirror, facial recognition -> profile switcher.

                  Maybe other options lather with other ideas from the community.
