How about just sticking an iPad running a custom app behind the mirror, instead of this complicated set up?
They don't make 24" iPads.
Lenovo does make 20" and 27" tablets though (their horizon and flex lines)
Magic mirror: One way mirror with a monitor behind it

Re: Magic mirror: One way mirror with a monitor behind it
#32Very cool, though I'm disappointed that it's not interactive. I agree that touch isn't the right choice for a mirror, but that's not the only option. Adding a camera and a bit of OpenCV code could give you a "light" version of a Kinect interface -- broad gestures or hand signs shouldn't be hard to use to change modes. Or a microphone and some voice recognition. Not sure what the open-source state of the art is like,…
Voice recognition is a good thought and totally doable. A camera probably isn't a great choice for a bathroom mirror though.
Good point. :)
