Amazon's Ring unveils the $249 Ring Drone Cam and the $999 Ring Rover Cam, utilizing its AI Pilot navigation software, under new subbrand Ring Robotics (Kyle Kucharski/ZDNET)
Alongside the Ring Drone Cam, Ring introduced the Rover Cam for businesses. It investigates disturbances and streams 4K footage.
Ring has recently launched an AI Pilot for its home-surveillance drone, though CEO Jamie Siminoff emphasized that this does not signify a long-term commitment to the term "artificial intelligence." The company's struggle to deliver a functional drone led them to adopt cloud AI as the solution. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has proposed renaming "artificial intelligence" to "superintelligence," a change that has prompted major tech companies like Google, Meta, and Nvidia to adopt the new term.
However, Amazon, Ring's parent company, remains unclear on the issue. Despite the President's executive order, there is no consensus on whether the tech industry should adopt the new term. Ring CEO Siminoff stated that the company has named the AI Pilot and has no plans to change its name, though he acknowledged that the landscape could change in the future.
