Abstract
The window blinds with solar panels comprises a set of window blinds with a cover positioned along a top portion of the window blinds. Moreover, the cover is positioned on an inner side of the set of window blinds. A motion sensor and camera are mounted on the cover of the window blinds. The camera relays a video stream to a Bluetooth activated device upon detection of motion via the motion sensor. The set of window blinds further includes at least one solar panel located on an outer surface, and which is adapted to receive sunlight through a window. The set of window blinds is further defined with a housing, which is adapted to be secured to a top surface of a window frame. The housing enables the cover to be attached thereto.
