One feature of a smart home that I love is automated window treatments. The phrase "window treatments" is an unfortunate one, though, because it's so boringly dry and clinical. It makes it sound like the windows have some sort of disease that requires "treatment". For normal folks, such as you and I, "treatment" is what's known as blinds, shades, and curtains—and watching your automated blinds, shades, and curtains lower/close or raise/open is something that never gets old. Of course, there are more impactful benefits of automated window treatments, that include control of the amount of light coming into the room, privacy management, and temperature control. But saying that automating your blinds, shades, and curtains will save energy (and money) and make your home more comfortable doesn't do it justice. It's a concept that you have to personally experience in order to truly get it...
