Integrating roller shutter switches into the Smart Home
A smart roller shutter switch replaces the traditional wall switch and connects to your home network via Wi-Fi. ROMA Roller Shutters can be retrofitted with smart functionality using Wi-Fi-enabled roller shutter switches or in-wall actuators. Such solutions are offered by various Smart Home manufacturers, such as Homematic IP or Shelly. The roller shutters are controlled via an app—for example, on a smartphone or tablet—or by voice command through Alexa or Google Assistant.
ROMA also enables integration with Smart Home platforms such as:
Somfy TaHoma: for comprehensive scenario control
elero Yubii Home: connects roller shutter control with home automation and security components
Loxone: for intelligent building automation and energy management
KNX: open standard for professional home automation
digitalSTROM: for easy networking of building functions via the electrical grid
For example, this allows you to centrally control all Wi-Fi Roller Shutter switches in the house, create schedules, or use weather data to automatically open or close the Roller Shutters.
