Amazon's Ring division has unveiled two autonomous security devices powered by cloud-based AI navigation: the $250 Ring Drone Cam for homes and the $1,000 wheeled Ring Rover Cam for businesses. The releases come after years of development delays and alongside ongoing scrutiny regarding user privacy, regulatory approvals, and corporate data practices.

- The company also introduced the Ring Rover Cam, a $999.99 commercial mobile robot set to ship on December 16, 2026, that records 4K footage and shares design elements with the Amazon Astro.
- Both devices rely on Ring's AI Pilot system, which offloads navigation and mapping tasks to cloud computing and internet connectivity.
- The Drone Cam weighs around 165 grams, captures 2K video, and operates for five to eight minutes per charge before returning to its dock.
- The drone's commercial release remains subject to regulatory clearance, including pending Federal Communications Commission authorization.
