Abstract: A Smart Mirror is an innovative device that combines a traditional mirror with modern digital technology to provide useful information to users. The main purpose of a smart mirror is to display real-time data such as time, date, weather updates, news headlines, and calendar reminders while functioning as a normal mirror. This project uses components such as a two-way mirror, display screen, Raspberry Pi, and internet connectivity to create an interactive system. The smart mirror works by placing a display behind a two-way mirror, where the Raspberry Pi processes and shows information collected from the internet. Users can view important updates while performing daily activities like grooming or getting ready, which saves time and improves convenience. Some advanced smart mirrors may also include features like voice commands, sensors, and smart home control. The Smart Mirror project demonstrates the practical use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in everyday life. It aims to make daily routines more efficient by integrating digital information into a common household object.
