A "Mirror TV" or "TV Mirror" is any device that is convertible from a television to a mirror.[1][2] Mirror TVs (or TV Mirrors) are often utilized to save space or discreetly conceal unsightly electronics in living areas such as bedrooms and living rooms. Mirror TVs are also popular for bath spaces and restrooms, where TVs are more unusual.
In addition, Mirror TVs (mirror televisions) are versatile in their application. Mirror TVs can be integrated into interior designs including Smart Homes and Home automationintegration. A mirror television solves the problem of home automation without having to compromise style.
Technically, the device consists of specially engineered mirror glass with a LCD or a LED TV behind the mirror surface. The mirror is carefully polarized to allow an image to transfer through the mirror.[3] So, when the TV is off, the device looks like a mirror, but when turned on, the picture appears. Models include High-Definition functionality, common with the LCD or the LED technology used in the screens. Some manufacturers offer very high-end input and output options for entire-home A/V integration. [4] [5]
