      Can I use the touch screen monitor independently. I am not interested in using an IR frame.

      I am looking to implement a magic mirror in my home for calendar, schedules and IoT access. I have seen some good touchscreen answers but nothing without the use of IR frames in some capacity or another.

      Display: 24" capacitive touchscreen monitor. 60hz ref. rate.
      Mirror: Two way mirrors “smart mirror” tempered 5mm
      Pi: raspberry pi 3b+

        @mrdrmichael I ‘think’ so as there is a small touch screen for pi. I do not know how they interface for apps. thru the browser for things like mm, …

        note that most modules are not input enabled, as a ‘mirror’ hangs on the wall and is usually output only.

        you won’t be able to put glass or film over the monitor.

          @sdetweil Thank you for the response. I ordered the 24" display I am going to run some tests before applying a mirror. Even though most applications are output based I am hoping to integrate some input such as the calendar and minor IoT accesses.

          I have not gone too in depth on the project but its like a running application that can be switched between like a process.

            @mrdrmichael I understand, lots of development to go…

            MagicMirror is a browser based, single page application. a composite info panel.
