By moving to 2K video resolution, Ring, which is owned by , not only wants to significantly improve the image quality through greater sharpness and better details, but also implement more vibrant colors. 2K video resolution is now available on Floodlight Cam Wired Pro and Spotlight Cam Pro. However, even though the update is released today, it may still take a few days before it is available to all customers. The upgrade is available to new and existing customers. Existing customers only need to update Floodlight Cam Pro and Spotlight Cam Pro via the Ring app to upgrade from Full HD video resolution to 2K video resolution.

The technical basis for video quality is Ring Vision technology, which combines Ring hardware and software to achieve balanced representation of color and contrast as well as smoother motion, according to Ring.

Vehicle detection

Additionally, Ring also announced automatic vehicle detection. A feature that alerts users when a moving vehicle is detected within the field of view of certain Ring doorbells and cameras. However, this new Smart Alerts feature is only available to customers with a Ring Home subscription. Automatic vehicle detection is currently rolling out and will be available to all customers with compatible devices in the coming weeks.
