Smart Reflect Server

A modular Smart Mirror software solution with API's for external hardware interaction, and support for plugins written in any programming language.

Published Paper here: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7746277/

##Wiki Please refer to the Wiki for further details on setup, operation, and plugin development. [The Wiki] (../../wiki)

###Features:

  • Support for plugins written in any programming language!
  • An API for any program to update their own web display and web configuration
  • An API for managing plugins with built in web interface (enabling/disabling plugins + re-arranging plugins)
  • Built in scheduler for running short lived scripts/programs and redirecting their output onto the mirror display
  • Easy to add/remove plugins, no coding necessary; just drag and drop them into the necessary folder!

##Sample Plugins:

##Project History This project started as a capstone project for our (Derrick and David) Computer Science degree. Our semester was only 3 months long, so with other classes going on, not a lot of time could be put into the project; it's more or less a proof of concept system. This repository is a second repository with all our capstone specific information and code that is not necessary removed for the sake of keeping our original repository intact for marking and historic purposes; hence the suddenly populated repository.

Our prototype mirror utilizes a Raspberry Pi 2B with a 3.5" touch screen on it for interactive demos as seen below. Prototype Hardware
