You don't actually touch the mirror, but get within an inch of it. I saw something like this in a smart house. You don't actually touch the mirror, but get within an inch of it.

Add to it people working with the mirror to imitate favorite expressions, etc. Though if you think women spend too much time in the bathroom. Just think how long they'd take with this installed.

How about seeing yourself in an outfit, or with different hairstyles/body mods?. With controlled lighting and webcam sensors, the full doorway/alcove would also lend itself to face-to-face virtual meetings/virtual worlds. It could be a giant Iphone or a vertical Microsoft tabletop. Or maybe you just want a nice interactive background when you are looking at yourself in a mirror.
