If you’re concerned about a robot coming along in the future and stealing your job, spare a thought for guard dogs. The poor prowling pooches can already see their successors hovering on the horizon - and they look like Ring’s impossibly futuristic Always Home Cam.
It’s not hard to see why you might opt for a security drone over a slobbering four-legged sentry. For starters, you don’t have to feed it twice a day, pick up its little robo-turds or take it for a walk - it does the latter all by itself, periodically taking to the air to embark on its preset surveillance route around your house. The rest of the time it sits in its charging dock, although it’ll spring into action if it senses a disturbance somewhere and needs to investigate using its built-in 1080p camera.
