Uhh, because of the heat of the raspberry pi & camera behind there
Suppose you were in this situation and suspected something. I’d imagine the space behind it would be totally dark, so what would be a safe way to check if there’s a gap in between without breaking the glass?

I read a long time ago that putting something flat against the mirror will show you. I think if the mirror is legit you’ll see the reflection directly on the surface, if it’s two way the reflection will look like it’s inside the glass.

But I’ve never had the chance to actually test that, so take it with a grain of salt.

scientific use mirrors are front mirrors, the metal is deposited on the outer surface. They are delicate and difficult to clean.

Every household mirror is rear coated, and then painted to protect the metal from oxidation.
