Smart blinds and shades are nothing new. Many of them run on rechargeable batteries that require being charged every few weeks. The Mado Shades are solar powered, so you don’t have to worry about that. It has a tension-fit design and can be fit with no drilling. It clips in and expands to fit. You get a smart button to control the shade out of the box. It can be paired to multiple shades.
Mado has an AI app that calculates the path of the sun and takes into account weather conditions to adjust the shades automatically and save energy. These shades can help block heat and minimize heat loss in summer and winter respectively. Mado works with Alexa, Google, Apple, and other platforms using Matter over Thread. You can find it on Kickstarter at this time.
