A few thoughts immediately come to mind: 1) No pain point.

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.
