Any chance we can get some close ups? :)

[Snille]

@cowboysdude Sure, what would you like to see? In the google gallery (the link above) there are lots of “close ups” but is it something in particular you are interested in?

[cowboysdude]

@Snille Sorry didn’t see the link!! That looks awesome. The bottom is a touch menu If I"m thinking correctly?

Please do share how you have the LED’s working for backlight… I’m very interested in that! :)

[Snille]

@cowboysdude Thank you!! :) The LEDs you say. :) Ok, for the moment, the mirror is not “aware” of the leds. This is something I’m planing to implement. But as it works now I’m using PixelWeb with Bibliopixel 2.x as a back end. Then I’m using the below sh script to trigger different (predefined so far) animations.

#!/bin/bash
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 
# Snilles MagicMirror Led Conrol Script.
# Use in conjunction with PixelWEB.
#
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Connfigure here!
# URL to PixelWEB API On the MM.
apiurl="http://x.x.x.x:8081/api";
# Default program if no argument is set.
defprog="back";
# Default red amount if non is set.
defred="45";
# Default green amount if non is set.
defgreen="30";
# Default blue amount if non is set.
defblue="0";
# Default brightness amount.
defamount="50";

echo $"";

Then I’m using Alexa (for now) to trigger different animations (via the HA-Bridge server). But later on this will be triggered by a module that “picks up” other modules communication so I can animate the leds depending on for example weather events, calendar events, memo events or whatever I can figure out. :) I just have to convince my wife that animating the leds IS a good thing… :)

@Snille Awesome, Thank you!

[Snille]

I just added a quick comment on all the pictures in the gallery so you know what you are looking at. :)

[cowboysdude]

@Snille That is just awesome! Thank you!

[yawns]

Like cowboysdude I totally missed the link to your google gallery. The build is very amazing, I am a bit jealous on the 3D printer :)

Very nice!

[Snille]

@yawns Thank you! :) I know the post is way to long, but when I see others builds, I always want to know how they did things. So I just included all the information at the top. So people don’t have to ask for it. :)

In fact I read your post, I just did not notice the “see here” link under your photo :)
I do like to see how others created their mirror (or other things)
