A few thoughts immediately come to mind:
1) No pain point. The project has a gee-whiz, neato factor to it. While it would be cool to have this level of automation there's no strong need or urge to have it.
The thing is mini-blinds suck. The cords get tangled. One side almost always gets stuck when rolling up/down. If your product addressed this pain point and you tied the automation feature to taking the suck out of mini-blinds that might gain more traction. Instead of having to fumble with cords, just press a button.
2) Where's your team? Is it just you taking care of everything? Product design, product testing, order fulfillment, press releases/management, manufacture - all of these are major tasks. It's seems like a herculean effort for one guy. And makes me hesitant that there will be a final, shippable product.

I would like to get more into home automation, and I though I should start with this. 2)I had hire someone for video that's about it, and the same person fix the English in the bio. I had designed the product myself and printed out with my 3D printer, I been doing PCB manufacture with companies in china, so that's very easy the plastic molding would be something new for me, if the project would get funded I would hire someone to take care of all the business part and I would take care of the manufacture, since thats the part I enjoy more.
- scancool 12y agobut I see your point not having a team I can see how it might scare people. I'm thinking just hire someone just to do the business right?
