"And in the future we hope to add features that people might actually like to use.. like, phone synchronization, video chat, text message/e-mail notification, facebook updates, and basically everything that has been selling extremely well for the last 5 years... wait why didn't we just do that?"

Its a touchscreen monitor with a mirror screen protector on it. My iphone is a scaled down version of this.

thought of this 7 years ago

[supafunnymonkey]

great besides that a video camera is used to be like a mirror so why would you need one in a mirror?

[MJwalkathon]

yo dog i herd you liked being concieded, so i put a video camera in your mirror, so you can look at youself while you look at yourself

Also Waterloo is known for their great computer science program :)

While I don't doubt that it's the guy controlling it, what I don't get is:

Obviously they designed an interface for it and got the display to work with the mirror. Toss in a touchscreen and some cheap voice recognition software and this is totally possible. If they weren't being so lazy they might actually have a marketable product.

THIS IS A SCAM. (Thanks to F150draggin22s)

THE THIRD GUY IS ACTUALLY CONTROLLING EVERTHING!

[Australiano75]

This will never take off, as the person who is using the mirror will be looking at themselves. Humans are ego centric by nature.
