Eve is kicking off CES 2022 with the launch of MotionBlinds<\/a>, a product that could solve some of our biggest smart shade woes\u2014namely speed. The company also announced its first Outdoor Cam, launching on April 5th with HomeKit Secure Video support.<\/p>\n

Smart blinds are exactly what they sound like; motorized window shades that you control using schedules, app<\/a>s, voice controls, and smart home routines. The concept<\/em> behind smart blinds feels super futuristic, but in our experience, products like the IKEA smart blinds still feel a bit primitive. They can take fifteen or twenty seconds to respond to commands, which isn\u2019t ideal for any smart home product!<\/p>\n

But the Eve MotionBlinds support Thread, a fast networking protocol for smart homes. If you have other Thread devices in your home, such as a HomePod, then the MotionBlinds will receive commands faster than you can flip a light switch. In other words, Eve MotionBlinds should feel faster and more responsive than competing products, which is important, considering the high price of smart blinds.<\/p>\n

In addition to Thread, the MotionBlinds are \u201cMatter-ready.\u201d That\u2019s a fancy way of saying they won\u2019t be HomeKit-exclusive when the Matter smart home standard launches later this year. Matter is a complicated thing, but the gist is that it allows all participating smart home products (from Google, Amazon, Apple, etc) to communicate with one another.<\/p>\n

Eve has also announced its first Outdoor Cam, which costs $250 but features 1080p video, a 157-degree FOV, night vision, an integrated floodlight, two-way audio, and motion detection. Its the second outdoor security camera to support\u00a0HomeKit Secure Video<\/a>, a system that\u2019s fully encrypted and doesn\u2019t store video in iCloud.<\/p>\n

The Eve MotionBlinds are available now<\/a> starting around $400, though you need to purchase them through one of the company\u2019s dealers. Eve says it will launch its Outdoor Cam on April 5th for $250.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
