@grillchips Hi! Thank you. I’m using a Pilkington MirrorView mirror. It’s a 50/50 mirror (bought it through my work) and it work well when it’s normal lighting I think. If I open the door in the hallway and the sun shines in to the hallway it’s hard to see what’s on the screen.
Then I’m (for now) using a Raspberry Pi 3 and a IR Multitouch Overlay Frame to give the mirror “touch” capability. There where a bit of trickery to the setup of the IR-Frame, you can find the information in this thread.
Then I’m using a LPD8806 LED Strip to light up behind the frame. Here I’m for the moment using PixelWeb with Bibliopixel 2.x as a back end. It’s not fully integrated yet with the mirror software. I built a small sh script that sends a json string to PixelWebs (in official) API. :)
Hehe, As you can imagine, it’s still a long way to go on the software part, you know how it is. There is always something that can get a little better… :)
I think that’s the important bits. Let me know if you want to know more. :)
