Our mission is to succeed and finish this important stage of life! Study is something very important because it is the only proof in life that you master a skill. So we dont look at it as studying , no wee see it as upgrading your brain to a more advanced level
Hello i am Robin. I live in a small town named "Londerzeel" its pretty countrified but still close to the major city's like Brussel and Antwerp.
I have studied Electro Mechanics in my secondary school. I completed whit charm and look back at that time as a fun place to be because you can actualy make something from scratch. I had a great base to study on into that course but i found that it lacked the skill of computer science and thats how i got into Thomas More Embedded Electronics.

We used a lot of google their api's into this project : google calendar , google maps , ...
We used "https://openweathermap.org/api" as our api to get all the information about weather.
In this block diagram you see how the project is put together. It may change in the future because the reflection we wanted is not achieved.
Momentairy we have taken a old cheap lcd screen with a vga connection. This can be changed in the future to get even bether screne quality. On the screen we have placed a plexi glass with a special foil on it
this foil is responsible for the mirroring of the screen. Above that we have placed a resistive touchscreen panel this very cheap but doesnt work al that great so we advice to use a capacitive touchscreen and dubble check
that it is a clear touchscreen NOT mat ;).
All of that will be connected to a rasberry pi where the sofware on runs. On the rasberry pi we have connected also 2 sesnors. The left one will be used to mesure the temperature and the right one will capute movement.
This will enable the mirror and go to sleep when there isnt any movement found.
