Amazon's latest upgrade to Alexa+, its next-generation AI assistant, allows you to order food from popular delivery services Uber Eats and Grubhub in a conversational manner, just as if you were chatting with a waiter at a restaurant or placing an order at a drive-thru.
The U400 one-ups just about every other smart lock available today by using your iPhone or Apple Watch's ultra wideband (UWB) signal for hands-free smart lock unlocking, a new Home Key feature Apple announced in 2024 that's coming to smart locks at long last.
It is no different than finding a dog in your backyard, looking at the collar and deciding whether or not to call the number.

The addition of a security camera enables you to receive alerts about intruders, record video events that you can review later, and drop in and check on the videofeed whenever you like from wherever you are.
Amazon Ring's Super Bowl ad offered a vision of our streets that should leave every person unsettled about the company's goals for disintegrating our privacy in public. In the ad, disguised as a heartfelt effort to reunite the lost dogs of the country with their innocent owners, the company previewed future surveillance of our streets: a world where biometric identification could be unleashed from consumer devices to identify, track, and locate anything - human, pet, and otherwise.
