Ahead of CES 2022, home smart device maker Eve announced two premieres. The company is breaking new ground in the smart home industry, announcing Apple’s first Thread-compatible smart blind engine and HomeKit Secure Video-compatible outdoor camera.
Automate your window coverings with wire
First of all, in partnership with the blind specialist Coulisse, the new Eve MotionBlinds motor is available immediately. Starting with custom roller shades, the smart home device lets you automate the daylighting and privacy of your home. Additionally, Eve MotionBlinds supports Thread, making it compatible with the upcoming smart home Matter standard.
Eve MotionBlinds gets its power from a rechargeable battery, which charges via USB-C. You can quickly and easily set up the smart shades motor like any other HomeKit accessory, by scanning a QR code with your iPhone. Plus, the smart shades motor doesn’t require a hub or bridge, but the integration of a HomeKit hub provides more control and automation options.
Eve Outdoor Cam Adds Outdoor Support with HomeKit Secure Video to the Smart Home Industry
Eve was one of the first manufacturers to produce cameras that work with HomeKit Secure Video. In addition, his Eve Cam is a well-designed and relatively discreet surveillance and security device. It also works very well. The latest addition, Eve Outdoor Cam, brings that quality to your front patio, back porch, or any exterior part of your home.
This outdoor camera records in Full HD 1080p resolution and offers a wide 157-degree field of view. In addition, it has infrared night vision and motion detection, as well as two-way communication through a built-in microphone and speaker. Its projector offers ultra-powerful lighting and can be activated by movement. The three-axis camera adjustment allows you to point Eve Outdoor Cam precisely where you want it to be watched.
Availability of the latest products from Eve’s smart home industry
MotionBlinds will be distributed through a growing network of Coulisse dealers listed in Eve’s store locator. Starting with custom roller shades, Eve MotionBlinds is already available on SelectBlinds (US), abcblinds.com.au (AU), OmniaBlinds.com, Sonevo.de and Smartblinds.com (EU).
