Abstract

Mirror displays, mirror display and compartment assemblies, and methods for making mirror displays are provided. In one example, the mirror display includes a transparent mirror having a front surface facing in a forward direction and a back surface opposite the front surface. When a user is present in front of the front surface, the transparent mirror is configured to reflect a first image of the user from the transparent mirror back towards the user. A display panel is disposed adjacent to the back surface of the transparent mirror and is configured to display a second image that is transmitted through the transparent mirror to be viewable from the front surface.
