Hunter Douglas Japan Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has announced the launch of its electric curtain track, the "Smart Curtain Track PowerView® Gen3 Automation," set to hit the market on June 19, 2026. This innovative product enhances the way curtains are managed in homes, merging aesthetics with user-friendly technology.
An Evolution in Window Treatments
The launch of the PowerView® Gen3 Automation marks a significant shift in how curtains are perceived, moving from being mere coverings to integral parts of a smart home environment. Hunter Douglas has aimed to transform the interaction with window treatments, previously limited to physical handling, into a smooth, automated experience that aligns with modern lifestyles.
As smart home technologies gain traction, many consumers are seeking seamless integration of features like lighting, air conditioning, and security into their home environments. The Smart Curtain Track answers this demand by combining sophisticated automation with the elegance of drapery.
Eight Essential Features for Enhanced Comfort
The Smart Curtain Track is designed around comfort and advanced usability, featuring seven remarkable attributes:
1.
Whisper-Quiet Operation: The curtain track operates at a sound level of approximately 27dB, making it suitable for bedrooms or spaces featuring infants, guaranteeing minimal disturbance during quiet hours.

4.
Soft Start/Stop Mechanism: To enhance the luxury experience, the curtain track utilizes a soft start and stop feature, which gradually decelerates as it nears the end of its run. This fluid motion not only reduces jerking but also creates an atmosphere of sophistication.
5.
Adjustable Opening Speed: Users can personalize the speed of their curtain opening, adjusting it anywhere between 90 to 120 RPM to suit the ambiance or occasion.
6.
Manual Override During Power Outages: In case of a power failure, the curtain can still be manually operated, maintaining functionality and peace of mind during unexpected situations.
