The new mirror is part of a bathroom cabinet with two pivoting panels, each with a mirror on the inside. In the left panel, an integrated camera streams high-resolution images in real time to a tablet-sized display that is seamlessly incorporated in the right panel. Functional LED lighting is added for a rear view of the users’ head, neck, and back.
