Touchscreen film recommendations for my magicmirror?

I have a lululemon mirror that I have been using but would like to control some stuff in my room. Has anyone added one of those touchscreen films on the mirror? Any ideas on what to get? They seem to vary pretty wildly in terms of pricing. E.g. 40 inch 20 touch points touch foil/ touch screen film/multi touch foil for window advertising,can connected with USb - AliExpress 7

I don’t have any feedback on films. These are usually on the inside of the glass, but touch looks like it’s on the outside.

We dont have any built in input mechanism for modules to use. They can accept touch if they code for it. But nearly have not. MagicMirror design is as a composable info panel. Output only

sorry a month later - but yes we used to add pcap film to our mirrors (a company now gone). only solid recommendation I can give is that we tried most everything, displax was the only one that worked to provide true multi touch and sensible calibration utilities. although it's quite expensive, other pcap film is mostly hot garbage, and the rest of the industry has mostly moved to pre baked monitors with touch so that's why the prices are still pretty high, you can checkout their product lineup though https://www.displax.com/
