1. A virtual mirror system comprising:
a frame;
a first camera coupled to a first segment of the frame and being configured to generate first image data reproducible as one or more first images of at least a portion of a subject that is positioned within a first field of view of the first camera;
a second camera coupled to a second segment of the frame and being configured to generate second image data reproducible as one or more second images of at least a portion of the subject that is positioned within a second field of view of the second camera, the second camera being positioned relative to the first camera such that a portion of the first field of view overlaps with a portion of the second field of view to define a virtual mirror area;
a projector configured to display images on a surface, wherein the projector is located on a user-side of the virtual mirror;
a display configured to emit light on the surface, wherein the display is located on a display-side of the virtual mirror;
a memory storing machine-readable instructions; and
a control system including one or more processors configured to execute the machine readable instructions to:
cause the projector to display, on the surface, a virtual mirror image of the subject based on the first image data and the second image data, wherein the virtual mirror appears to the subject as a mirror image of the at least a portion of the subject; and
cause the display to emit light such that the light is visible on the surface to augment the virtual mirror image of the subject.
