No one here answered the original question. The answer is very simple...using lutron QED shades...and a lutron homeworks lighting control system brain....like a series 4 processor....can easily accomplish this task. The brain takes the location you are in the world and knows when sunrise and sunset occurs every day and can kick off an event based upon the sunrise time for that day. Sensors are also very easy to incorporate into this. Lutron just came out with wireless control of shades also for another type of system...controled by the new QS brain.
