The key benefits of smart window coverings perfectly match the main motivators for consumers to make their homes smart: safety, energy efficiency and convenience. First of all, smart window coverings bring lots of convenience as they make life at home even more enjoyable. As part of a smart home ecosystem, where various devices work together, smart window coverings automatically move to the rhythm of your daily life, creating the perfect atmosphere at any time of the day.
Next to this, smart window coverings make homes safer. Thanks to pre-set scenes and timers, they are continuously in motion, making the home always seem inhabited. This helps to prevent break-ins. The smart ‘two way’ protocol of Motionblinds provides real-time feedback on the exact positioning of the blinds in the app, wherever you are. What’s more with smart window coverings, is that children and pets can no longer get tangled in hazardous loops of control cords.
Finally, smart window coverings contribute significantly to energy savings. Consistent closing and opening of blinds can lead to a 6% reduction in the heating costs and energy consumption of a home. Scenarios such as the automatic closing in the evening or as soon as temperatures rise above a certain level, lead directly to energy savings. This effect is further enhanced by the diversity of possibilities to expand these scenarios towards thermostats, heating, air conditioning or other smart home solutions for saving energy.
