Aqara’s Curtain Driver drags your drapes into the smart home era
Automating shades, blinds, and curtains is one of the smart home’s coolest and most useful tricks. Smart window coverings can be set to open every morning and close every night based on a set time or at sunrise and sunset, controlled with a voice command, and automatically operate based on your location or even the weather.
Aqara’s retrofit Curtain Driver can do all these things plus has a built-in light sensor so you can set the curtains to open and close based on ambient light. An adjustable speed setting in the Aqara app will also allow you to program the curtains to open slowly — over up to an hour — to simulate a natural sunrise. This reduces the noise from the motor, making it a better fit in a bedroom.
If you have curtains on the same rod that open in opposite directions, you will need two devices, which get pricey quickly. No wiring is required, and the 6000mAh battery should last up to a year and can be charged with a USB Type-C charging cable.
