Automated Window Shading
As compared with passive switchable glazing technologies such as photochromic or thermochromic -- which merely react to environmental conditions such as ultraviolet radiation or temperature -- SPD technology offers the user control over the amount of light transmission and much faster switching speeds.
Automating HVAC Registers
To make the motorized registers, I'm using standard units purchased at a local hardware superstore, and the small servo motors were purchased from a local hobby shop that deals in Remote Control cars, planes and boats. All that's needed is a simple circuit to control them.
Can Home Automation Save You Money On Your Electrical Bill?
Ideally, a home energy controller would be programmed to calculate when loads should be turned on or off. It should also be designed to look at alternate solutions such as closing the window blinds before turning on the air conditioner to cool a room. The controller has to strike a balance between energy savings and comfort and convenience to the homeowner. The system should be almost invisible to the homeowner. If it isn't, it will soon be disabled.
