I have a client that wants motorized window treatments that start at the bottom to allow privacy from neighbors but allow them to see out/up. Their windows are 10 ft tall.
I found these while searching. [Link: draperinc.com]
Anyone know if these work or anything similar?

For most brands bottom up and skylight shades are the same/similar mechanism, typically listed as tensioned shades.
Lutron's are the easiest I have used. Your max size is 8 ft w x 12 ft tall. There is a frame that encloses the shade on all sides, it also hides the moving parts.
MechoSystems is the opposite. They will build any size in a bottom up system. Even with a full set of engineered drawings, the process is a chore. The guide cables and other moving bits are exposed. It is not "pre-assembled", not even close. But, they do have an answer for every possible need.
I was just in the Crestron showroom earlier this week and one of my designer clients brought that up. Without skipping a beat, the Crestron guy said no problem.
And yes, it's tensioned with wires, ala skylight shades.
