You can get an short impression of our build and development process on this pictures.<\/p>\n
In scope of the project, we also wrote a scientific paper about it. In the paper we discuss our plans of the project, the methods we used to build the smart mirror and also have a closer look to the survey we conducted.<\/p>\n
\n \u201cA smart mirror is an enhanced household mirror. It additionally contains a computer display and some sort of computer system to calculate and display information that seems visually embedded in the mirror surface.<\/p>\n
As a student project we built our own smart mirror named “Albert”. We initially did some research about existing projects to improve our idea and to see what our main characteristics could be.<\/p>\n
We did a survey about the needs and wishes related to smart mirrors in general to ensure focussing on the best technologies and strategies. Our main results and influencing parts are that portrait format of the mirror is preferred and modules like a clock, a calendar and a to-do list are main needs. Voice and gesture control turned out to be the best.<\/p>\n
As result of the research and survey we focussed our development to the function modularity and the ability to adapt on persons circumstances with flexible configuration.<\/p>\n
The future of Albert could be started by developing additional modules to extend the functionality or integrating other sensors for some added value.\u201d

Technical documentation<\/h2>\n
Besides the scientific paper we also wrote a technical documentation of our project, were we explain the technical details of our project. The documentation includes details of the framework and all the modules we programmed.<\/p>\n
