Ring has been at the forefront of smart home security for a decade, offering an affordable range of whole-home tech to make neighborhoods safer.

Today the company has introduced a brand new product for the Saudi Arabian market called the Spotlight Cam Plus — a next-generation device featuring a wide-angle lens, 1080p HD video, built-in LED spotlights, and a powerful alert siren.

The Spotlight Cam Plus builds on the previous model’s feature set with Color Night Vision, wired and battery-powered modes, plus an all-new design.

Smart, Customizable Outdoor Security

The Spotlight Cam Plus is available in black or white and retains all of the regular features Ring users have come to rely on, including real-time notifications, Two-Way Talk, and Live View.

The new Color Night Vision mode is improved by two motion-activated LED spotlights, allowing homeowners to keep a watchful eye on their property, day or night. In addition, Customizable Motion Zones can be set to trigger events, with Privacy Zones excluding certain areas from the camera’s field of view.

Global technology company Yango Group has announced a significant upgrade to the large language model (LLM) powering its AI assistant, Yasmina. This enhancement allows Yasmina to deliver more accurate, nuanced, and context-aware responses in Arabic and English, improving interactions and user experience across the Middle East region.

The upgrade is part of a phased rollout of YangoAI, the company’s suite of advanced AI technologies specifically adapted to regional needs. As a result, Yasmina now offers 38% more accurate and timely responses in Arabic, made possible by an enhanced ability to analyze web documents. Additionally, unnecessary answer refusals have been reduced by almost 50%, ensuring smoother and more engaging conversational experiences.

One of the most notable new capabilities of Yasmina is its expanded bilingual translation skill. The improved assistant empowers bilingual users, educators, language learners, and content creators to seamlessly translate conversations between Arabic and English, facilitating better communication and understanding.

Beyond translation, Yasmina can now provide highly contextual recommendations for everyday activities and lifestyle choices. Users seeking personalized suggestions — for instance, how to spend a day in Dubai exploring both modern and traditional attractions — will experience enhanced clarity and precision from the assistant.

The assistant’s upgraded functionality also aids users with tasks such as real-time currency conversion, homework support that encourages independent thinking, creative brainstorming, poetry and storytelling, and even providing riddles suitable for children.

As the region embraces digital transformation, we continue to enhance our AI assistant, aiming to make it even more helpful, versatile, and relevant”.

YangoAI’s continuous training on region-specific data ensures that Yasmina and other Yango services authentically reflect local culture and user expectations across the Middle East.
