<![CDATA[The Italian "dual" Job [Build]]]>Hi to all,
this is my first try, i’m building a dual system magicmirror with garbage things :D.

First of all bought an old paint with size that fit my trash monitors:

disassembled:

so a build an electronics frame:

And:
alt text

Build a bracket for the little amazon echo:
alt text

So i’ve applied a mirror skin to my old glass (good enough to see how it works)
Sorry no photos about that, i was in work DIY frenzy :)

Now it’s time to the first run:

and right side:
alt text

Still TO DO:

  • paint frame in white
  • apply sonoff to the monitors (i will control via Alexa behind the mirror)
  • buy a real two way mirror (anyone know where in Bologna, IT)

for any advice, i’m here and glad to know
Bye!!!

How well does it “hear”? I tried an Echo Input (the small one without its own speaker). It works, but I have to get very close to the mirror so he can hear me.

Beacuse family matters the project is ended few months ago…so this is the final result:

as you can see there is a new led strip behind the frame, smart controlled by alexa as the monitors.
You asked how dual monitor with a single raspberry, the answer is that i don’t know :D i’m using a dual raspberry setup :)

please let me know what you think about the result!
Ciao!!

After reading this thread i’ve googled how to set up multiple screens on my device. i use a ORANGE PI PC, so there could be some differences than raspberry.
I haven’t tested it, but i share here the thread i’ve found.
Maybe more skilled users could find it useful.

[I am Italian too]

Why did you prefer to use a REAL Amazon device instead of MMM-Alexa? :confused_face:

I remember all the grief i had trying to get that module working…and then stay working…i would’ve paid the small amount for the spot and be done with it too! LOL

OMG… You just brought back all the Nightmares there :-( So much wasted weeks and weeks for nothing, and all the stress :-D .
