When I first run into the Magic Mirror project I was convinced this was something I wanted to build on my own. Without the amazing work and the easy to use framework by Michael Teeuw and this forum, this wouldn’t any possible to archive. And yes, this was real fun!
Checkout my blog on http://www.robstechlog.com/building/ for more details.
Several modules like the ones for face recognition, speech recognition or even streaming from webcams bring the Raspberry Pi 3 to it’s performance limits by max out it’s memory and cpu. I found some older topics where several alternatives where named. Unfortunately those post were abandoned like half a year ago and really hard to read, due to the overlapping conversations.
I really want to find a powerful alternative to the Pi3. Perhaps the experienced builders can briefly share what they have done for experience with your alternatives. I think the following criteria are interesting.
Everybody else please don’t forget to up vote the contributions of those who share.

Two little modules for the Magic Mirror to include beautiful graphics generated with grafana.
It’s for your graphs! The data that’s currently displayed on my mirror using the MMM-GrafanaCharts is a weather forecast for the next two days.
If you’re interested in building you own weather chart, check out my blog post Programming your personal weather chart.
Gauges are extremely helpful to monitor individual values and their deviations from the nominal value. With the MMM-GrafanaGauges vital values of my plants are displayed on the mirror.

I found I nice website to share constructions online, its’called Onshape.
If someone is interested in the metal frame model. It’s available here.

I just updated the summary post, could you please check, if there is everything correct?!
I just found this source here and thought about this module.

By now brushtimer.js has already the whole logic the of the final modul implemented. It’s working like this.
What you need to set up in your attempt is a timer. When you detect your mac-address you start your timer. And when its gone, stop it.
Here is a clock object you can integrate and use. You can use Clock.resume() to start/resume the timer or Clock.pause() to wait. If you want to reset use Clock.Stop()
Everytime the clock-timer is changed you fire a sendSocketNotification('TIMER_UPDATE', totalSeconds) like int the MMM-NetworkScanner-project with sendSocketNotification('MAC_ADDRESSES', macAddresses) to inform the main module an show it to the mirror-screen.
var Clock = {
totalSeconds: 0,
start: function () {
var self = this;
this.interval = setInterval(function () {
self.totalSeconds += 1;
console.log(Math.floor(self.totalSeconds / 60 % 60) + ':' + parseInt(self.totalSeconds % 60));
}, 1000);
},
pause: function () {
clearInterval(this.interval);
delete this.interval;
},
resume: function () {
if (!this.interval) this.start();
},
stop: function(){
this.totalSeconds = 0;
clearInterval(this.interval);
delete this.interval;
}
};
@cowboysdude The Frame was made in small factory in Berlin. The main challenge was to find somebody with free capacities in the next three month!!
Seems like it’s a good place for metal processing companies around Berlin!
@cowboysdude
Thanks for your answer.
Could you please share a link which mini itx board board you’re exactly using?

Hey guys,
I was able to cut the white bar by cutting the last pixels (depending on the image size) from this image with adding the following to MMM-Globe.js
getDom: function () {
var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
if (this.config.style == "europeDiscNat") {
wrapper.style.height = 0.98 * this.config.imageSize - 1 + "px";
wrapper.style.overflow = "hidden";
}
var image = document.createElement("img");
