How to control Window Curtains with Phone: DIY Arduino Automation (2024)

Описание: This is Part 2 of the Curtain Automation. In this video, I show a step-by-step guide to control your curtain from anywhere using the Arduino IOT Cloud App via the new Arduino R4 WiFi board instead of physical buttons.

Also, if you have the paid version of the Arduino IOT Cloud, you can connect it to Amazon Alexa.

The window curtain is automated using Arduino R4 WiFi and a NEMA-17 Stepper Motor. Keep in mind, that you'll need an ordinary Curtain that uses a rail and a rope for opening and closing*.
