Is there any kind of motorized curtain system that I could put on a timer to open the blackout curtains every morning at a set time? I'm familiar with some of the automated blind systems, those are pretty intense from what I have seen though.
Interested in any ideas. Would love to come up with a compromise that gives me dark at night and light in the morning.

At least there are all kinds of timers you can mix with motorized curtains. How about ditching the timer and having sensor that opens the curtains based on amount of sunlight (as that is what you essentially seem to want)? Unless the courtyard is so bright that it fucks up sensors totally. But at least more sophisticated sensors can make difference between different wavelengths, though cost might be problem.
