Ring detects activity
Your selected outdoor Ring camera supplies the event that starts the workflow.
Smart backyard golf-ball retrieval deterrent
FORE! THE LAST TIME is being built to combine Ring camera events, smart decision logic, and Rachio sprinkler control to discourage golfers from entering your property to retrieve golf balls.
A simple four-step workflow designed to respond only when the situation calls for it.
Your selected outdoor Ring camera supplies the event that starts the workflow.
Decision logic is designed to distinguish likely golf-ball retrieval from ordinary yard activity.
When the event meets your rules, the appropriate sprinkler zone can provide a harmless deterrent.
Schedules, safeguards, and manual controls are part of the planned homeowner experience.
The goal is a practical deterrent that reacts intelligently without turning normal backyard activity into a nuisance.
Uses Ring event data as the detection layer instead of adding another dedicated backyard sensor.
Designed to use the irrigation system you already own rather than alarms, fences, or confrontations.
Planned controls include scheduling, exclusions, and quick shutoff so you remain in charge of the system.
Ring account linking is operational. Camera-event analysis and Rachio control are the next stages of development.
