Gesell dome/one way mirror
Aunque en la actualidad suele ser plano y estar alojado en una pared, la cámara o espejo de Gesell mantiene el nombre de domo pues fue así como lo construyó Arnold Lucius Gesell (1880-1961) para observar la conducta y desarrollo infantil. Hoy también lo usa la policía, como nos informa el alud de películas y programas de televisión dedicadas a los justicieros que andan sueltos por el mundo.
La literatura especializada en inglés se refiere a este dispositivo de observación como dome (cuando habla del original) o, simplemente como one-way mirror.

Note from asker:
| No es tan as� la cosa. Hablan de una c�mara Gesell en una sala de reuni�n, o sea que m�s bien se tratar�a de un "one-way mirror" como dice una colega. |

(Depending on who the translation is for)
I agree with Gesell chamber, however this term might be more familiar to professionals than to the general public.
Cámara Gesell (Gesell Chamber) by Daniel Veronese (El Periférico de Objetos) Presentations at the International Puppet Festival of New York, organized by the Jim Henson Foundation (1997).

Gesell Chamber
This is a riveting production from one of the most creative contemporary theater groups in Argentina best known for dark, cutting-edge productions. This production features turn-of-the-century china dolls abandoned by children of the upper-class. The title of this deeply disturbing play refers to an observation room made of one way glass, from which a person's behavior can be secretly observed. From this vantage point the audience watches as a young boy's stormy relationships, despair and solitude, lead to acts of cruelty, repression and finally murder.
