Integration of motorized blinds into a smart home
Modern electric blinds and shades can be easily integrated into a smart home system. In this case, all processes are managed by a central controller that knows the exact temperature in the house, presence of people, humidity, sunlight intensity, time of the day and sets all systems according to a pre-set scenario. For example, when house owners are away, the system closes motorized blinds and switches the air conditioner into an economical mode and when the owners return home, it opens motorized blinds to the set parameters, taking into account time of the day. The system also interacts with lighting – motorized window blinds can be automatically closed when the evening comes and the internal light is switched on, taking into account the presence of people in certain rooms. The system will check the real sunset and sunrise through the Internet to always perform the scenario when necessary.
