A method includes capturing real-time video of a user participating in a first exercise class, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device. The real-time video is displayed concurrently with video of an instructor via a display in communication with the IoT device, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. The method also includes analyzing the real-time video to determine a performance of the user, and causing display of a warning, via the display, in response to determining the performance of the user. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device, at multiple times. Heart rates of the user are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are identified and displayed. A recommendation for a second exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user and displayed via the display.

A method for inspecting an ear of a user includes obtaining an inspection mirror having a handle, a first mirror and a second mirror, the first mirror being hingedly attached to the second mirror via a hinge, wherein the first mirror is moveable with respect to the second mirror to define a variable interior angle. The user grasps the handle of the inspection mirror, positions the inspection mirror behind the ear, adjusts the variable interior angle by pivoting the first mirror with respect to the second mirror, and looks into an additional mirror to view a reflection from the first mirror and the second mirror to see the interior of the ear of the user.

A method includes capturing, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device, real-time video of a user performing an exercise associated with a first exercise class. Real-time video of the user is displayed, via a display, concurrently with video of an instructor, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. Image analysis of the real-time video of the user is performed to determine a performance of the user, and a representation thereof is displayed. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device at multiple points in time. Heart rates are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are displayed via the display. A recommendation for a second exercise class different from the first exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user, and displayed via the display.

A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.
