There was a grocery store in a very small town near my town that had a coin box on the wall. Periodically, they would have to put a quantity of quarters in or else the power would shut off. It was installed by the power company to avoid billing. The company would send people to go around to the small towns and collect the coins.
So if it detects movement so all you need to do is get close after it's activated and use the mirror anyway but probably a curved one so there's no open space then you can stand it up and don't have to hold it because all you need to do is not have motion for a bit and it'll deactivate then you cover it
Not to be that guy, but the math isn't correct based on the info. Since each switch is up, middle and down, that gives 3 positions per switch. So the number of possible positions is 59,049. Not 1024. Of course if the switches can only be up or down, and the middle is not a possible position, then I'm wrong and you're right.
