Abstract
Touchscreen mirror device () comprising a touchscreen panel () and a mirror surface (). The touchscreen panel () comprises a grid of capacitive sensors () for detecting a position of an input object such as a fingertip (F) near the touchscreen panel (). The mirror surface () is configured to at least partially reflect a mirror image (M) at a front side of the mirror surface (). The mirror surface () comprises a reflective metal layer () divided in separate metal islands () that are electrically isolated from each other by a single contiguous gap (G) for allowing the capacitive sensor () to detect a position of the input object through the mirror surface ().
