Ring has unveiled a new flying security camera for your home – the Ring Drone Cam – which can navigate your home using AI.
Ring already has a selection of fixed security cameras but the Ring Drone Cam can literally fly around your home to give you a complete view if it detects a disturbance.
The Ring Drone Cam will be able to provide a view of areas your home, where you don’t traditionally place a camera, like bedrooms and bathrooms, in the event of an emergency.
The Drone Cam can be programmed to fly set routes around your home and patrol on schedules.
The onboard camera has 2K resolution and a 148-degree field of view.
Because it’s a drone it can rotate 360-degreea and fly up to eight minutes before it needs recharging.
It also has two built-in LED spotlights when flying in low-light conditions.
Ring Drone Cam takes off and lands from a charging base.
The drone sets an interactive 3D map of your home – it’s created with the help of Alexa – showing all your internet-connected devices.
And the noise the drone creates with its high-speed propellers can also act as a deterrent.
It is unclear whether the Ring Drone Cam will be available in Australia.
Ring is planning a major launch event in Australia in early December and this product could very well be among the new offerings.
In the US it will be priced at $US249.99.
