US-based Ring, a home security and smart home company, has launched its first indoor-only security camera - Ring Indoor Cam.

Ring Indoor Cam is the company’s most affordable camera being sold at Dh249 ($67.79) (including VAT), said a statement.

Ring's mission is to reduce crime in neighbourhoods and empower consumers by creating a Ring of Security around homes and communities with its suite of smart home security products.

With its compact design, the new Ring Indoor Cam can be mounted just about anywhere in the home and features up to 1080p HD video, motion zones, night vision, two-way talk, and motion-activated recording, it said.

The device also includes privacy features that enable users to disable motion and audio recording right from the app, and an indicator light that displays whenever the camera is recording.

Ring also announced the third-generation Ring Stick Up Cam, the most versatile of the company’s cameras.

The new Stick Up Cam can be installed indoors or outdoors and comes in two power options: Plug-In (Dh399 ($108.63) including VAT) and Battery (Dh399 including VAT). Featuring up to 1080p HD video, motion detection, night vision, two-way talk, and a wide viewing angle, Stick Up Cam provides flexible home security and privacy wherever it’s needed most.

Jamie Siminoff, founder and chief inventor of Ring, said: “We’re excited to bring customers our most affordable camera yet, and provide even more security options with Ring Indoor Cam and the all new Ring Stick Up Cam. As a team of inventors, we are constantly pushing ourselves to identify innovative, cost effective and easy-to-use security products that make our neighbourhoods safer.”

“With our growing lineup of both indoor and outdoor cams, varying in size and functionality, our customers have choices when determining how best to secure their homes,” he added.

With the Ring app, link Indoor Cam and Stick Up Cam to compatible smart home devices from Ring and other leading brands for a smarter, more secure home. Both new cameras announced today integrate with Works with Ring devices.
