What is changing?
Ring says its flying indoor security camera, Drone Cam, will launch in the United States on January 27, 2027, for $249.99. The 165-gram device follows routes defined in the Ring app and can take off when a sensor triggers, on a schedule, or on demand, streaming and recording 2K video. Its camera is physically covered while the device is docked.
Autonomous movement is powered by Ring's AI Pilot system, which the company says combines vision models, sensors, and cloud processing to map spaces and navigate routes. The device can fly for five to eight minutes, has only enough local capability to land when Wi-Fi is lost, and requires a Ring Protect subscription. It is still going through FCC authorization, so timing and specifications may change.
