Aqara Curtain Driver E1 (Track Version)
Smart curtain motor for track curtain systems

It fits common U‑ and I‑rail tracks, delivers quiet operation and packs a large rechargeable battery for long run times. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Smart Automation for Track Curtain Systems
Use the Curtain Driver E1 to open or close curtains automatically based on time, light, temperature or any other trigger. Moreover, you can create scenes that combine curtains with lights, sensors and HVAC — for example, close curtains at sunrise to reduce glare or partially close them when sunlight is strong.
How It Works
The track version mounts directly onto U‑ or I‑rails and moves the curtain along the track using a quiet DC motor. It communicates via Zigbee 3.0 for reliable integration with Aqara hubs and popular voice assistants. In addition, the device includes a built‑in light sensor to support automated brightness‑based actions. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
