Suggestions for creating Smart Venetian Blinds?

Hi Nixjuh!

Thank you for taking the time to write down your suggestion! :blush:
The first option seems like quite a good suggestion!
The power source would indeed be something to look at, is there no powersource available from Somfy?

The second and third options unfortunately won’t work for my application. As my blinds are from Topjaloezieën and use two seperate strings for tilting the blinds, so i can’t use a closed loop or a turn rod motor.

I think i’ll do some research in to the somfy motor to see if i can make this motor work.
I’ve also looked at a new app/product called Motion Blinds, See link below.

Motion Blinds

They supply smart blinds as a whole, but also motors for roller blinds.
In the app however they offer support for Venetian blinds as well.
I’ve asked in this topic what type of motor supports venetian blinds.

I will report my findings! :grin: :face_with_monocle:
