Bluetooth Enabled Technology in External Blinds Fuels Europe External Blinds Market
The Bluetooth technology allows the user to open and close the external blinds by using a remote or a smartphone. External blinds with Bluetooth can be cleaned in one go and do not require additional care. Several manufacturers are coming up with Bluetooth-enabled technologies, which provide the comfort of controlling external blinds. For instance, on May 2022, Hunter Douglas announced that its smart shades were upgraded with a PowerView Gen 3 system, which offers easier installation, better reliability, and improved scaling for ambitious connected homes. The third iteration of the PowerView system (Gen 3) marks a move away from the shade and blind makers' proprietary wireless tech and instead embraces Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The current version of PowerView relies on a smart hub, a dedicated remote control and the company's app. With that, users can adjust automated external blinds within the house and to some extent, can link the system with third-party smart home ecosystems, such as Amazon Alexa and Crestron Home. The PowerView Gen 3 products have a BLE radio and can directly connect to a user's smartphone. The BLE link is bidirectional, so blinds can report back their position up to eight times per second.Thus, Bluetooth-enabled technology in external blinds would become a trend in the Europe external blinds market in the future.
