Overview

    Everyone is a little vain. Whether you’re shaving, brushing your hair, or taking a quick peek at yourself for self-admiration, it would be incredible to save some time and see your calendar or the stock market without having to look at your phone. Get ready, get informed, that is the beauty of a smart mirror. Our objective is to create a mirror that can be programmed to display a variety of different information. We are hoping to connect this smart mirror with a phone or website so you can customize your preferences easily and efficiently.

Objectives

  1. . Learn how to program in Python and apply that knowledge to the functionality of the smart-mirror.
