Virtual mirror

From On-signal: Projects & Research

A display is hanging on the wall. It looks like a mirror. Just above it, a small camera registers movements of the viewer in the room.

The display displays a virtual world which is a copy of the physical world the display is hanging in. When a viewer views the display, the perspective of the display changes according to the position of the viewer, thus creating an illusion .
