Jamie Siminoff founded Ring, a video doorbell and home security company. He prefers the title chief inventor rather than CEO. He published a book titled Ding-Dong: How Ring Went from Shark Tank Reject to Everyone's Front Door. And I have to admit that it is a great title for a doorbell company.
Ring is introducing a new AI-powered feature that consolidates multiple alerts from a camera about a single event into one notification. Single Event Alert is launching on November 6th and is designed to reduce the barrage of notifications from a video doorbell or camera. Building on Ring's AI Video Descriptions that send a summary of what the camera sees, Single Event Alert analyzes the generated summaries and intelligently groups multiple motion alerts from the same event into a single notification.
According to Flock's announcement, its Ring partnership allows local law enforcement members to use Flock software "to send a direct post in the Ring Neighbors app with details about the investigation and request voluntary assistance." Requests must include "specific location and timeframe of the incident, a unique investigation code, and details about what is being investigated," and users can look at the requests anonymously, Flock said.
