Amazon’s Ring is best known for its doorbell and home security cameras, but now the company is rolling out cameras that can move around on their own.

Ring announced Tuesday a new product category called Ring Robotics, starting with two devices, the Ring Drone Cam and Ring Rover Cam.

“For years, customers told us they wanted eyes in the places a fixed camera couldn’t reach, and peace of mind in the spots they’d never want one,” said Ring Founder Jamie Siminoff in a press release. “The honest answer wasn’t more cameras; it meant reimagining what a security device could be.”

Both devices are powered by Ring’s custom-built AI Pilot system, which allows them to map indoor spaces, suggest patrol points, and navigate around obstacles on their own.

I would absolutely buy a robot like this to follow me around pick up little things and play music like DJ Roomba 2.0 if it weren’t exorbitantly expensive and it was self-hosted so I knew it wasn’t sending data about me
