Home automation is the residential extension of building automation.

It is automation of the home, housework or household activity.

Home automation may include centralized control of lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), appliances, security locks of gates and doors and other systems, to provide improved convenience, comfort, energy efficiency and security.

I hand close all of these (they’re in sections - 9 total). This is me being lazy of course but I’d really love to find any way to automate them or look for a replacement during Black Friday. I’m guessing these are called plantation shutters but I’m not sure since we moved in this home about a year ago and the owner passed away. They don’t have any type of string or pull system as I mentioned before so I’m not sure if they even can be automated. Any suggestions?
