The Interactive Mirror, designed by Lit Studios, is a wonderfully playful mirror with a touchscreen interface that allows users to play with and distort their own image.
According to the designer:
The cognitive machine that is your brain automatically deals with things like size and distance and perspective, a job it hopefully does fairly well, you don’t have to give a mirror’s reflection much thought. However, interacting with buttons and animation layered on your reflection and the world behind you is unlike any other touchscreen experience. This unexpectedness, to me, is precisely the allure of HCI and all things touch-capable.
We just can’t stop thinking about what would happen if someone snuck one of these guys into the bathroom at a club with no instructions…

watch out nightclubs, the bathroom is turning in to be the hang out place. Can’t help but wonder, is this a pre-empt for the next stage in computers???
