        @cowboysdude Looks great!

        I’ve gone 27", bought it second hand for £60. It has built in speakers than I’m hoping to make use of too!

        How long did it take for you to do the build?

          That is awesome! I love that idea!! What I’d really like to do is do facial recognition as well!! BUT I have tune in radio pro so I’d like to be able to make use of speakers… that’s a great idea!!! BUT being new to all this I have to pick one thing at a time LOL

          I’d like to take a module I wrote for joomla and turn into a module for this… it’s an NFL Score board… but it has to be in js and that I don’t know but I do know a guy who does … soooo maybe he’ll help me out…

            I’m exactly the same, I have no experience in this

            One of the developers here has developed a facial recognition module, so it might be worth checking that out if you’re interested

              Can you show us the back side of the mirror?
              I have everything set up, but I cant figure out how to build the frame for the mirror… ;-)

                @flooo This guy has a fairly decent walk-through of his build - https://howchoo.com/project/mzu3ndm2otu/building-a-voice-controlled-smart-mirror-with-raspberry-pi-and-jasper

                  @Mitchfarino just browsed through it quickly and yes you’re right this guy did an awesome walk through! I like the idea of voice but would at this point rather have facial recognition :) But I don’t see why we can’t have both!

                    @cowboysdude I’m going for voice recognition using Alexa instead of Jasper

                    PIR to disable/enable the monitor

                    Also looking to use the ultrasonic sensors for gestures too!

                      @Mitchfarino said in Cowboysdude's Mirror:

                      ultrasonic sensors

                      I just got my PIR motion sensor and VIOLA it works… sleeps after so many seconds but once it detects movement it comes right back on! I run it through crontab…

                      if you want a copy of what I’m using for motion sensor I’ll share…I put them in the root and create a crontab to run pir.py and the rest is history… remember to chmod all three files… if you really wanted you could combine all three into one and instead of calling the off and on sh files you could just tell it to run the command from the py file… I will do that soon, just tired out today …work.

                      I have an Amazon Alexa sitting in my livingroom LOL BUT from what I’ve seen it’s a great option!

                        @cowboysdude cheers mate, that sounds great!

                        @paviro has created a PIR module, so I was looking to use that.

                        Is yours different?
