I've done it and it's the best! Remote controls next to each set of windows plus voice control through google.

"Hey google, close the blinds" or my morning routine is "Hey google, good morning" which opens the blinds, plays the news headlines, weather and traffic for my morning commute.

It's also possible to close them when sun sets and open during sunrise, but I don't bother with that.
