No one's home tonight, but the sensor on your home office window upstairs alerts your phone: “Motion detected.” Maybe it's just your cat, or a flicker of a passing car’s headlights. Instead of shrugging it off, you ask Alexa to send your Ring Drone Cam to check it out.

The tiny, 165-gram drone lifts out of its charging dock, buzzing loudly, and autonomously flies upstairs, giving you a first-person view on your phone’s screen as it scans the room. Since it's dark in the house, the Drone's spotlights kick in, making it look like someone's physically in the home and moving around—a potential deterrent to would-be thieves. All clear? It heads back to its base to recharge.
