AT CES 2020, Ring unveiled its Access Controller Pro, the company's first entry into the access control space. The device enables users to remotely operate their electronically-controlled access gate right from a mobile device. When paired with a Ring Video Doorbell or Cam, users can open Live View, see who is at the gate, and securely let them in right from the app.
Look for an exclusive follow-up interview with Ring on SecurityInfoWatch.com live from the show floor at CES in the coming days.
According to the company, Ring Access Controller Pro is hardwired into users’ electronic gate systems and requires professional installation.
Also announced at the show is the new Control Center, expected to come to the Ring mobile app later this month. According to a press release, it will initially enable Ring users to see and manage their connected mobile, desktop and tablet devices, third-party services, as well as enable customers to opt out of receiving video requests in areas where local police have joined the Neighbors app. Future versions of the Control Center will provide users the ability to easily view and control other privacy and security settings right from the Ring app. With privacy, security and customer control top of mind, the new Control Center will provide Ring customers with more visibility into how their data is kept secure and private by Ring.
New products in the Ring Smart Lighting line include the company’s first-ever Smart LED Lightbulbs and three new solar-powered outdoor Smart Lighting devices.
