"This week, Ring, an Amazon-owned smart security company, announced Search Party, a new feature to help find lost dogs. When someone posts a picture of a lost dog on Ring's Neighbors app, they will be able to initiate a Search Party. Ring then uses AI to scan footage from nearby outdoor Ring cameras and doorbells for the lost pet. If it's detected via someone else's device, that camera's owner will receive a notification and can choose to share the video with the pet owner."
"It's a great use of AI and has the potential to track down missing pets a lot faster than social media posts or text message chains. This is because it (almost) cuts out the middleman - you. Rather than relying on you to see a message about a missing dog, look at a picture or read through the description of the dog, and then go check your camera feeds to see if it ran by your house, all of that happens in the background."
""Your Ring AI assistant is looking for that dog and is going to tell you, 'Look, this dog I saw looks like this dog that's missing,'" Ring's founder, Jamie Siminoff, told me in an interview at Amazon's event this week. You can then decide whether to share the video or just notify the owner through the Neighbors app, he explained."
Ring, an Amazon-owned smart security company, launched Search Party to help locate lost dogs by scanning nearby Ring outdoor cameras and doorbells. When a user posts a lost-dog photo on the Neighbors app, they can initiate a Search Party and Ring's AI will analyze surrounding camera footage for matches. If a pet appears on someone else's device, that camera owner receives a notification and can choose to share the clip or notify the poster via the Neighbors app. The automated search can locate pets faster than social media or manual checking. Some users want explicit control over whether their footage is included in searches.
