@Sean Thanks for the quick reply! If glass is not an option, what would then be recommended? Would it also still be possible to make a full sized mirror without using glass? In case Is choose that option.

Thx for the help! I’ts much appreciated.

Hi There,

I recently got a touchscreen monitor for a very cheap price, I was thinking what to make of it and let’s say, I am not here cos I didn’t find a project :P

So yes, I am going to make my own smart mirror. FYI I will be using a Iiyama prolite t2252mts-b3 (touchscreen monitor) and a rasberry Pi 3b+. I may add a camera to it and mic, but that’s something for later perhaps.

Anyway, here are the questions, looking at other makes I often see that the glass 2 way mirror is sharper. I am wondering whether this is true, I would like the sharpest outcome with the monitor that I use (1080P). Also does anyone know whether the touchscreen will still be functional under glass?

Would you recommend making a 22 - 23’’ mirror or a full body sized one? Keeping in mind that I have another monitor laying around (not touch screen) that I could fit in there as well.

Perhaps you also have any tips, tricks or ideas for me as I am new to this. Any help is welcome!

Thanks in advance for the help I may get.

Enjoy your day ;)

Regards,
Frits
