- Is it possible to send the samples to me maybe? ofcourse with some €€€
- You can order a sample at www.PyraSied.nl it's only 2euro
full size was around 110 Euro for the size I want.
current expanses:
new monitor: 300
building materials 120 euro
mirror 110 euro
custom aluminum strips 60 euro. - @nklerk also wondering about this. I have a 24' monitor lying around that I don't use and I love this futuristic idea. Did you finish yours, are you happy, do you miss anything, would you do it again?
Would it work with the foil on a touchscreen, I wonder - I had the 2 way mirror (plastic) glass on it but i wasnt happy with the result.
it looked a bit like a laughing mirror as the weight pulled on the plastic glass. Allso light cleaning got scraches on it.
As i am using a lot of my spare time on my NEEO app and beta testing of the NEEO i havent spent any time on the mirror. My next step is getting real glass and try that. this is way more expansive and more heavy so i have to be sure how to procede. could take some extra months before i'll continue.
You can get touchscreen overlays which you can place on top of the mirror: https://www.aliexpress.com/popular/24-inch-touch-screen-overlay.html@nklerk also wondering about this.

Would it work with the foil on a touchscreen, I wonder- @nklerk thanks for your answer, good to know that the foil isn't a very good solution.
@JaapPelt that's also quite cool! Any experiences with that? It's (also) supported on Linux but I wonder if it's hard to make it work on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian. - No experience, but there are raspberry pi projects online with these kind of touchscreens. I have no clue on the quality, looks and driver support.
Although it is not as powerful, gesture control might be easier cheaper and more intuitive.(not to mention that it keep the mirror clean): https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/gesture-control-tv/
Personally, I would prefer to have just some basic data on the mirror like today's agenda, news headlines and weather. Gesture control would be sufficient to scroll through the news items.
Which software do you run on your smart mirror? How do you push data to it?I'm using homey for controlling my smart mirror- edited April 2017I was thinking I could share what my setup looks like.
For the glass I used this one:
https://www.glashandelonline.com/spiegels/confrontatiespiegel/confrontatiespiegel/
Little bit dark, but really nice, when the monitor is on, you won't notice the backlight.
But yea, a bit expensive
I'm using the latest Magic Mirror 2 software for the RPI, works really nice and has a lot of modules available.
Installed three modules on the MM:
MMM-syslog
API for sending notifications to your mirror.
MMM-REST with a couple modifications to work with the homey Better Logic App.
Pulls data from better logic and displays it. For me it displays the indoor climate.
MMM-Remote-Control
Cleanly shutdown (or reboot) your mirror ,hide and show specific modules, set the brightness and turn your monitor off and on. I'm now using the HTTP Homey appto talk to this module.
I already made a small part of a dedicated Homey MM app to work with the MMM-Remote-Controll module. Instead of using the HTTP App.
Anyone who likes to help out making this app?
Who is also using Magic Mirror 2? @DieterKoblenz ?
@nklerk, nice hardware setup! Did you try MagicMirror? - @PBaan93 I love that! It looks like you made it part of your existing bathroom furniture. Is that complete right mirror the screen, how did you do it?
- Yes, its the right side of the bathroom mirror. Left side is still normal. Small difference in the color and the 2 way mirror is 6 mm thick instead of 3 mm.
Gladly I had some help with the hardware.
Found some pictures of the process.
We smashed one mirror, took that door and milled out the exact size for the monitor and the motherboard of the monitor.
Disassembled the monitor and place it in the door .
Closed/strengthen the back with a piece of MDF(wood)
Spray painted a black border around the monitor on the back of the mirror glass.
And when it dried, glued it on the door. - I it! Makes me really anxious to get started on a similar project
Hey, i am using the magic mirror too. Could you share your config for the rest module?I was thinking I could share what my setup looks like.

@nklerk, nice hardware setup! Did you try MagicMirror?- @Jschuetz, its not only the config. Had to modify the code a bit. Will put it on github tomorrow.
Do you have a own fork? Or do you use the master https://github.com/Tuxdiver/MMM-Rest@Jschuetz, its not only the config. Had to modify the code a bit. Will put it on github tomorrow.
Yes, forked it:

Hi I tried to make it work, but I am doing someting wrong, the MagicMirror does display time and weather but not the homey better logic.
Can you help me?
What i did;
installed the better Logic app.
maked 2 flows to store temp and humidity in a variable, (number)
installed mmm-homey-better-logic from github in the modules folder,
copy paste the code in config.js
changed the homey ip and Homey bearertoken.
changed the name of the betherLogicVariable
is there someting iam forgetting or someting?
Got it working, map was called, MMM-homey-BetterLogic in stead of MMM-Homey-BetterLogic. one capital different on homey
Should work.

Can you show me the config of the mm(without your bearer token) and variable names in homey?
And do you know how to use Postmen to test the better logic api?- It is working now, i got a folder name wrong, i could not reproduce it. Thanks for your help and code

A magic mirror or smart mirror is a mirror that can display information. The idea is quite simple, it's a display behind a interrogation window. It will look like a normal mirror but when the display produces light it will be visible through the mirror. Ideally powered by a raspberry pi browser.
As multiple forum members are interested I have created this thread.

- There is a raspberry pi solution named magicmirror this is an existing nodejs solution to provide information. We all want to include homey information off course :-)
- My nodejs skills are as bad as it can be. I have made a few JavaScript based HTML pages that I probably will use for my project. I'll share them soon™
- Just installed MagicMirror2 on my pi for testing, looks great. Smart mirror in every room would rock haha
https://magicmirror.builders/ for the software
https://www.novoda.com/blog/content/images/2016/07/IMG_0516_crop.jpg for example - This is definitely my next hobby project! Would be awesome to link this to homey
- I now have 3 test pages that i have made.
these are just to see if i am able to pull it of .
A 'Buienradar' image without color and neighboring countries visible.
A digital Clock
A JSON call returning the state of devices - Yeah Twalef. That is how a dyslexic writes 12 in Dutch. Feel free to wait for a version in your language.
- Well, u can wright it like u say it aye? Het viel me alleen op. No problem at all m8!
- Np. Normally I would let someone check this stuf but as it's just a simple code test I didn't bother.
- Have any of you guys found a good comprehensive tutorial on how to build the mirror?
No real tutorial but if you google there are plenty of examples.Have any of you guys found a good comprehensive tutorial on how to build the mirror?
You need at least a flat tv or monitor, an observation mirror (from either glass, plastic or you can buy foil cheap (for Dutchies: https://raamspiegel.nl/) and a computer (easiest is a Raspberry Pi). The way you build it is dependent on those items, I haven't found any 'kits' you can screw together.- This post comes closest to a tutorial:
http://michaelteeuw.nl/post/80391333672/magic-mirror-part-i-the-idea-the-mirror - Yeah I saw that too, but still leaves too much to the imagination. I will 100% fuck up the hardware . If you guys come across any good tutorials / kits, let me know
- This is a useful tutorial: https://atticuswhite.com/blog/react-native-smart-mirror-lab/
- I think this could be a start to link Homey to the Magic Mirror.
- A small homey app with a web API, when a GET request comes in, reply with homey variableX.
- Update Homey variableX with a flow action card.
- Use one of the Magic Mirror modules, this one can do a REST API call.
Like to hear what you think! - The better logic app already has this feature.
- GET: HTTP://HOMEYADDRES/api/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic/VARIABLENAME
- For my test i use variabels in Homey that i get with rest. Works perfect.
i have installed chromium-browser on raspbian. i now have my info displayed in fullscreen.
i am currently searching for a way to automatically start the browser upon boot. If someone has an idea then please let me know - edited September 2016Aha nice. So no better logic needed. I understand your post now, nice test.
- I use better logic to store or get variables.
the webpage js gets these values - I just have created my index.html page. It only has a 1920x1080 iframe and a script that every 3 seconds checks a variable in homey
the variable in homey holds the URL the iframe will display. If the variable changes the index.html will use the new URL in its iframe.
this allows me to use homey to brows through different information pages. With a maximum delay of 3 seconds.
if I now want to view weather data I activate the mirror_wearher flow. This flow will set a better logic variable with the weather URL. When the index.html script noticed the changed URL it will load it and I see the weather details on my mirror. Well my future to be mirror :-) - Mirror mirror on the wall which traffic jam is the most magnificent of them all.
The mirror shows all traffic jams. - edited September 2016Would be better if the reflection would show a handsome man.
Already have a name for it. The Adonis mirror - Every mirror does that already, at least every mirror i encountered in my live showed me a handsome man.

Then you are a lucky man, but then again i'm rich. Think that's a compensation. You can't have both i thinkEvery mirror does that already, at least every mirror i encountered in my live showed me a handsome man.- I have the code samples ready. I have tested with my doorbell, when someone presses the doorbell, a near live camera image is shown. Now comes the hard part. Actually building it..
I made some mock-ups so i have a better view of a possible end result. - Just ordered a piece of acrylic glass and and observation mirror foil. I'll make a build log for my first attempt.
Cost so far:
Acrylic glass (60x40cm 3mm): €25,-
Observation mirror foil (60x40cm): €4,21 (raamfoliewebshop.nl) - Are you planning on using glass+foil or a premade mirror?
