The complete kit, including the docking station, looks more like a desktop kitchen gadget than a security drone. It appeared to be slightly larger than previously shown in the Ring demo video, and the model does not look like any of the popular drones on the market.
The Ring team revealed some details about the device, including that each floor will be patrolled by a separate instance. First of all, we are talking about the first floor.
The training will take place in a rather unusual way — the owner will ‘show’ the UAV the route, bypassing the house and its surroundings with the drone in his hands several times, after which it will remember exactly where to fly and control the house by making a series of flights. It will be possible to set different routes, as well as individual waypoints – for example, to check whether the stove is turned off and whether the back door is closed.
If the owner feels that something is wrong in the controlled area, he can make the drone hover in one place and return around the axis to inspect the entire nearby area.
It is known that a special program has not been developed for the new model – the functions will be available already in the existing Ring software, at least when the new product goes on sale. However, the company does not share its plans and release dates, the price of the device will also be announced later. Demonstration of the prototype at the exhibition indirectly testifies to the high level of readiness of Always Home Cam.
