Amazon has announced new Ring devices including the Ring Always Home Cam - a flying, indoor camera that allows you to see what is going on in your home in real time.
But, before we get too excited, Amazon said in a news release that - “These devices have not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. These devices are not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.”
Amazon also announced the Ring Mailbox Sensor (goes on sale Oct. 8, 2020) and Ring Car Alarm, Ring Car Cam and Ring Car Connect, which are expected to be available in 2021.
In a news release, Amazon said, "Ring Always Home Cam, an autonomously flying indoor camera letting users see what’s happening throughout their homes in real-time; and Ring Mailbox Sensor, which alerts users when their mailbox has been opened.
The company also announced it is bringing video End-to-End Encryption to its security cameras, becoming one of the first major home security providers to do so."
"Ring Always Home Cam gives homeowners a variety of viewpoints throughout their home without having to purchase multiple cameras.
Users can check if the oven was left on, the doors are locked, or the curling iron was left on with this compact, lightweight, autonomously flying indoor camera that flies predetermined paths set by the user, providing greater visibility when no one is home.
When used with Ring Alarm, the Ring Always Home Cam will fly the appropriate paths to check for potential disturbances when an alarm sensor is triggered.
Ring Always Home Cam was built with privacy in mind and only records video when in flight. When not in use, it remains in the dock where the camera is physically blocked.
When in motion, it makes an audible sound — this is privacy you can hear."
Amazon said the Ring that later this year, “customers will be able to easily turn on video End-to-End Encryption for compatible devices from this same page in Control Center.” The Ring Mailbox Sensor sends notifications when the mailbox is opened.
Ring Car Alarm ($59.99), Ring Car Cam ($199.99), Ring Car Connect ($199.99) and Ring Always Home Cam ($249.99) will be available on Ring.com and Amazon.com in 2021.
Ring Mailbox Sensor ($29.99) will be available for pre-order on Ring.com and Amazon.com starting on October 8, 2020.
