Take complete control of your window coverings from your iPad.
CHALLENGE
How do you take an engineer's idea and make it ready for the consumer market? While the "mad scientist's" solution was technically brilliant, it also required a Ph.D. to connect all of the parts (window shades, home network and mobile devices). To a homeowner, the out-of-the-box solution would have been a hurdle not worth the reward.
SOLUTION
We started by taking our understanding of the iPad's native infrastructure to simplify the setup process of the mobile device to the window coverings. Ultimately, we were able to remove more than 60% of the process by letting the application do the work behind the scenes. We then wrapped the solution into a slick design with easy-to-use features.
