Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

PC, PC on the Wall, Who is the Geekiest of them all? Take that extra PC you have lying around and turn it into an Interactive Magic Mirror. You build the hardware using an Arduino and some sensors while following the instructions given and then install the DIY Magic Mirror Software on a Windows or LINUX PC.


For around $300 you could build your own Interactive Magic Mirror. You can obtain the hardware used in the project for about $99.00. All you need is that extra PC laying around, an LCD monitor, and an old picture frame then your all set.

Features:
*Weather Forecast, Stock Performance, and Lighting Control
*Princess, Pirate, and Halloween modes
*Runs on Windows and LINUX Ubuntu
*Personalize it by adding your own videos (must be in Adode Flash .FLV format) or Make your own based on the digital puppets used in the DIY Magic Mirror (requires separate software from www.imagineerieing.com)
