Ring has surprisingly announced a couple of new security devices that aren't its usual cameras or doorbells. It has introduced two robots that can potentially patrol your home when you're out.
The Ring Drone Cam is an indoor, flying camera with its own charging dock. It uses AI to fly around your home when empty, keeping an eye on every room without you needing to install individual devices.
You can set custom flight routes and a schedule through the Ring app. It can also be deployed on demand. The drone will whizz around, automatically peering in each room on its route and setting off an alarm if it spots trouble.

It will also automatically head to an area where an alarm or sensor has been triggered, to record video of the intruder or incident.
The Ring Drone Cam comes with a 148-degree field of view and it can spin around 360-degrees. It records in 2K video day or night, with two LED lights that activate in low-light conditions.
The other robotic security guard is ground-based. The Ring Rover Cam performs a similar function but is an autonomous, wheeled bot that can patrol rooms from the floor. It will perform 360-degree scans of rooms when visiting, which can be done on a scheduled patrol or if you tap on the room map in the app.
It too will automatically respond to incidents when triggered and includes a built-in sired and light tower to ensure intruders are left in no doubt that they have been spotted.
