Ring's new Smart Video Search uses AI to locate specific events in video history through natural language queries like 'a black cat at night' or 'a kid riding a bike yesterday.' This feature enhances historical video retrieval, allowing users to follow specific activities without real-time alerts.
The feature is currently in beta for US users with the Ring Protect Pro plan and can search for animals, vehicles, packages, and person activities qualified by location, time, and weather specifics.
While Ring's search offers significant improvements for locating past events, it faces challenges, such as an inability to find specific Amazon delivery trucks despite being alerted of deliveries, reflecting gaps in its recognition capabilities.
Smart Video Search opens a new level of insight compared to Ring's previous smart notifications, catering to a broader range of user queries and experiences, although it still trails behind competitors in offering comprehensive alert systems.
