            This module is what you need. Along with one of the pir sensors, as linked to in the readme.
            https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor

            If you dont want it to start everytime you pass by your mirror, then you just place the sensor pointing up or down, and then you change swipe your hand in front of the sensor to activate the mirror.

                If you cant find one in sweden, then I use to order from thePiHut as it is located within the EU and therefore free from import tax, (atleast until Brexit)
