Today, home technologies are rapidly evolving and offering innovations that make users’ lives easier. One such innovation is the smart glass doors developed by Feather River Doors for Home Depot. These doors can be managed through the Hubspace platform. Hubspace allows users to control various home hardware such as lamps, ceiling fans, outlets, and locks.
The most striking feature of this new door is the ability to control the opacity or transparency of the glass through a smartphone application. This feature is made possible by polyurethane foam technology. Users can make the glass transparent or opaque according to their needs. This feature provides great comfort in terms of easily maintaining privacy and controlling the entry of natural light into the room.
New Smart Doors Starting at $800
Priced starting at $800, these doors are offered to customers unpainted. Thus, buyers can paint the doors any color they desire to match their taste and the decor of their spaces. The release date for the doors is set for October 28.
Currently, these doors are only usable via iPhone devices and do not yet have Siri support or HomeKit integration. However, they do support Alexa and Google voice control. This situation may limit the door’s appeal to a broader user base. Nevertheless, considering the innovation and comfort brought by technology, these doors have a high potential for widespread use in homes and workplaces in the future.
