Echo Studio adds a home camera
The Echo Studio with Home Camera combines a speaker with visual capabilities that allow Alexa to respond to its surroundings. Users can show Alexa a board game box to understand its rules, identify a cereal box to help reorder it, or check a room through the Alexa app while away from home. As per the company, the speaker retains its high-excursion woofer and Dolby Atmos audio, with Advanced Room Adaptation adjusting sound to the room. Amazon also plans to let users pair the Echo Studio with Home Camera with compatible Fire TVs for video calling on a television screen.Echo Time adds sleep sensing
Echo Time is a smart clock designed for bedside use, with a customisable display with camera. Users can choose from hundreds of clock faces, including analogue, modern, weather-themed and playful designs. Its sleep-sensing technology, powered by Omnisense, can detect lighter sleep and wake users between 10 and 60 minutes before their scheduled alarm. The display gradually brightens to simulate a sunrise, while the alarm tone increases gently.Alexa Photo Frame
The Alexa Photo Frame is designed to display photos from Amazon Photos, with pictures syncing automatically as new ones are taken. Alexa can select images based on factors such as smiles and seasons, while filtering out screenshots and other clutter. Users can ask Alexa to display photos of a particular person, pet or trip. They can also browse images manually on the 10-inch anti-glare touchscreen. ALSO READ: Google, XREAL launch AURA XR glasses with Gemini after Meta's VR pushEcho Show 16 gets a larger display
