Zemismart has released an upgraded version of our Matter over Thread curtain motor — MT03B.
With the growing adoption of Matter and Thread in smart homes, we wanted to create a curtain motor that is easier to install, more flexible for different home environments, and better suited for modern smart home automation.
The MT03B combines a compact motor design, built-in rechargeable battery, and solar charging support, providing a cleaner installation experience without the limitations of traditional wired curtain motors.
Compact Design for Easier Installation
One of the major upgrades of MT03B is its mini motor design.
Compared with traditional curtain motors, the smaller body makes installation easier and allows the motor to fit better into different curtain setups, especially where installation space is limited.
The compact design also helps maintain a cleaner appearance around windows while still providing reliable curtain control.
Built-in Rechargeable Battery
MT03B features a built-in rechargeable battery, removing the need for permanent power wiring near the curtain.
This makes it suitable for:
- Existing homes without power outlets near windows
- Apartments and rental homes
- Renovation projects where additional wiring is inconvenient
Users can simply charge the motor when needed instead of planning complex electrical installation.
Solar Charging Support
For users looking for a more maintenance-free solution, MT03B supports an optional solar charging panel.
With solar charging, the motor can continuously maintain battery power under suitable lighting conditions, making it a great option for frequently used curtains and hard-to-reach windows.
Matter over Thread for Modern Smart Homes
MT03B uses Matter over Thread, bringing improved connectivity and local control possibilities.
With a compatible Thread Border Router, MT03B can be integrated into smart home platforms including:
- Home Assistant
- Apple Home
- Google Home
- Amazon Alexa
- SmartThings
For Home Assistant users, MT03B can be added through the Matter integration and controlled through automations, scenes, and dashboards.
Smart Curtain Automation Possibilities
With Home Assistant, users can create different automation scenarios, for example:
- Automatically open curtains in the morning based on time or sunrise
- Close curtains when leaving home
- Adjust curtains according to temperature or sunlight
- Create room scenes together with lights and other smart devices
Designed for the Future of Smart Homes
The goal of MT03B is to make smart curtain automation simpler:
Smaller motor size
No fixed wiring required
Optional solar charging
Matter over Thread connectivity
Flexible Home Assistant automation
We would love to hear feedback from the Home Assistant community about Matter over Thread devices, curtain automation ideas, and your experience with smart window solutions.
