Ring has announced autonomous mobile security devices for home and business use. The indoor Drone Cam is priced at $249.99 and the business-focused Rover Cam at $999.99, while shipment dates remain undecided pending FCC approval.
Amazon’s Ring has announced two autonomous mobile security devices under the new Ring Robotics brand. The indoor-monitoring Drone Cam and the Rover Cam for offices and warehouses both move around to provide monitoring, respond to sensors and stream video.
The Drone Cam has a flight time of approximately 8 minutes and patrols rooms along set routes. AI Pilot creates routes while avoiding indoor obstacles, and the device operates according to designated patrols and schedules. It records only while flying and automatically returns to its charging dock.
The Rover Cam features 4K video streaming, two-way audio and a built-in siren, and covers spaces of up to approximately 5,000 square feet. It has a periscope-style camera that provides visibility over areas such as the tops of storage racks, and is scheduled to begin shipping on 16 December.
Because both devices depend on certain Ring Protect subscription functions, a monthly fee will be required for routine patrol settings and playback of some video, according to the disclosure. The Drone Cam is scheduled to ship on 27 January 2027 and the Rover Cam on 16 December 2026, although the dates may change depending on regulatory approvals.
