  • Apparatuses and methods for an interactive device
    Patent number: 12474889
    Abstract: A method includes receiving acoustic signals from a user. The acoustic signals are transformed into data. The data are transmitted to a voice-to-text conversion and artificial intelligence system over a network. Information is received from the voice-to-text conversion and artificial intelligence system.

  • Apparatuses and methods for providing a vanishing viewing window within a mirror
    Patent number: 10634910
    Abstract: An apparatus to provide reflection and information includes a mirror, which has a front side and a backside and further includes a glass layer. The glass layer has an area and a first reflectivity. A reflective layer is adhered to the backside of the mirror and a protective layer is adhered to the reflective layer. The reflective layer further includes a vanishing viewing window. Within the vanishing viewing window at least a part of the protective layer is removed from the to provide a second reflectivity for the vanishing viewing window, such that the first reflectivity is greater than the second reflectivity. The apparatus includes a data display. The data display is positioned behind the vanishing viewing window, such that when a user views the front side, the user sees a reflection in the mirror when the data display is in an off state and when the data display is in an on state the user sees a reflection in the mirror and data in the vanishing viewing window.
