Look at zwave, insteon, or any of the home-ish automation protocols.
Monoprice has these that plug into some standard motorized curtain units, not sure what those units are, but I thought to hunt them down at some point. They just whitebox the chinese bits without a middleman.

This is not the WIndows OS just your average window. My father is looking for a switch to put into his mobile home to lower the shades. He was looking at some kits but told me they are in the hundreds. I know this is something strange to ask the group but I seem to always ask some strange things. Does anyone a good setup that could be used to lower the shades? He's not looking for something big because the windows aren't that large. Plus he is not really looking to run wires but I wanted to see what I could help him with. A Pie would be interesting to see but that still leaves the motor. Any thoughts?
