Smart Mirror Market helps to Boost Smart Technologies Industry
smart mirror |
A Smart Mirror is a high-tech mirror that incorporates
integrated electronics such as sensors, cameras, and displays to create a
highly functional product. Internet connectivity and a touchscreen interface
are among the capabilities offered by smart mirrors. A memory mirror is a big
display made up of cameras and other electronic equipment. They're used to try
on clothes in showrooms. Smart mirrors are also used in the automobile, consumer,
residential, retail, advertising, and medical and healthcare industries.
The global Smart
Mirror was accounted for US$ 641.0 Mn in terms of value and
2,337 Thousand Units in terms of volume in 2019 and is expected to grow at CAGR
of 12.8% for the period 2020-2027. A smart mirror is a two-way mirror with a
built-in electronic display. In the form of widgets, the display may show the
viewer various types of information, such as weather, time, date, and news
updates. This device would be beneficial for people who need to multitask and
keep informed while on the run. Rather than always pulling out a gadget, one
might be informed while going about their regular grooming routine. I created
my own prototype and immersed myself in the realm of do-it-yourself smart
mirrors.
Manufacturers in the industry are concentrating on meeting
customer demand, since today's desire is to be socially engaged while also
being up to current. As a result, smart mirrors are linked to social media
platforms and deliver daily news, weather forecasts, and traffic updates. As a
result, these factors are projected to drive the worldwide smart mirror market
forward in the coming years.
Working Process of
Smart Mirror-
A smart mirror's fundamental design begins with the glass
that will be utilised. Two-way glass is preferred because it allows the visuals
on the display to be seen more clearly. Vanity Vision glass was chosen because
it is the best option for creating smart mirrors. As a display, I utilised an
Android tablet mounted on the back of the mirror. To guarantee that there was a
decent reflection, the remainder of the glass around the display was blacked
out with black cardboard. The widgets of time, date, real-time weather, and
news updates were visible through the front of the glass while reflecting the
user's image after downloading the code to the device from Android Studio.
The current smart
mirror items on the market are somewhat pricey. For example, a
mirror from Glance Mirror (glancemirror.com) in Chicago costs $1800.00. My
mirror, on the other hand, cost less than $100 to make. Because I utilised an
outdated smartphone that was no longer in use, this does not include the cost
of the Android device. Four panes of $0.95 Vanity Vision glass were utilised in
the early and final prototypes. For the frame, I utilised reclaimed wood. The
overall cost of purchasing it new would be roughly $30. The remaining hardware
materials came to approximately $20. If I were to make a production-ready
prototype, I would utilise higher-grade materials and a more expensive display
technology, which would dramatically increase the cost.
