Ring AI Pilot

AI Pilot is Ring's custom-built autonomy system for its Ring Robotics devices. It combines the robots' cameras, specialized vision models, on-device sensors and cloud processing. During setup it turns what a robot sees into a floor plan, identifies rooms and suggests patrol points; on each flight or patrol it plans a route to the preset point and steers around furniture, shelving and other obstacles in real time.

Ring founder Jamie Siminoff said the drone streams video to the cloud, which tells it where to go, and that the drone itself carries only enough intelligence to land.
