Amazon's Ring has launched a new line of mobile security devices that move around a home or business instead of watching from a fixed point. Announced on 10 November 2026, Ring Robotics starts with two products: the Ring Drone Cam, a flying indoor camera for homes, and the Ring Rover Cam, a wheeled robot built for businesses. ## What the two robots do The Ring Drone Cam flies set routes around a home and can be sent to investigate when a Ring camera, sensor or alarm is triggered. It records in 2K video, has a 148-degree field of view, can rotate 360 degrees, and uses built-in LED lights in the dark. Amazon estimates about eight minutes of flight per trip under controlled conditions, so it is designed for short checks rather than constant patrols. The Ring Rover Cam follows programmed routes through offices, shops and warehouses, streaming and recording in up to 4K video. Its periscope camera rises to see over counters and shelves, and it has two-way audio, a siren and a light tower. Amazon says it can cover spaces of up to 5,000 square feet. ## Prices, dates and the catch The Drone Cam costs $249.99 and is due to ship in the US from 27 January 2027, but only if the Federal Communications Commission authorises it first. The Rover Cam costs $999.99, is open for pre-order, and ships in the US from 16 December 2026. Both are guided by Ring's AI Pilot system, which maps a building and plans routes around obstacles. Scheduled patrols need a compatible Ring Protect subscription. Privacy features include a camera that switches off while the drone is docked and a Sleep Mode that retracts the rover's camera mast and silences its microphone.
