Amazon turns its most capable smart speaker into a smart camera, too

Amazon unveiled the Echo Studio with Home Camera, combining the existing Echo Studio speakers with integrated camera capability. The model retains audio specifications including 3.75-inch woofer, three full-range drivers, Dolby Atmos support, and HD lossless audio, alongside a new Advanced Room Adaptation feature that continuously tunes sound to room acoustics. Both versions use the AZ3 Pro processor with AI acceleration for Alexa+ generative AI capabilities and feature four-microphone arrays.
