On July 27th, according to Bloomberg yesterdayappleTHE COMPANY PLANS TO ANNOUNCE ITS INITIALS AT THE WORLD DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE NEXT JUNESmart glassesProducts are expected to be sold to consumers by the end of 2027。
THE INTERNAL DESIGNATOR OF THE PRODUCT, N50, WAS TO BE LAUNCHED THIS YEAR AND LISTED NEXT YEAR. ACCORDING TO THE REPORT, THE DELAY IN PUBLICATION WAS MAINLY DUE TO THE REPEATED TRADE-OFFS OF PRIVACY PROTECTION PROGRAMMES WITHIN APPLES。
APPLE PLANS TO EMPHASIZE "LOCAL PROCESSING" ON SMART GLASSES AND MAY DISCARD FACE RECOGNITION. IT HAS BEEN LEARNED THAT APPLES ARE TESTING A VARIETY OF PRIVACY PROTECTION PROGRAMMES, INCLUDING THE USE OF CAMERAS ONLY FOR AI VISUAL ANALYSIS (E.G., IDENTIFICATION OF OBJECTS AND LOCATIONS) WITHOUT ALLOWING THE TAKING OF PHOTOGRAPHS OR VIDEOS, AND HAVE EVEN EXPLORED THE POSSIBILITY OF INTRODUCING A CAMERALESS VERSION。
In addition, apples are expected to avoid the use of the Meta model of "supersensory" continuous monitoring and commit not to use user videos to train AI models。
In addition to smart glasses, Apple plans to update the Apple Watch product line. At present, apples are in the advanced stages of testing for Apple Watch Series 12 (code N237, N238) and Ultra 4 (code N240)。
The new watch is not expected to undergo major changes in the appearance design, with a focus on improvements in health monitoring functions and processor performance。
In terms of car operations, Apple has worked with Ford to integrate Apple Maps directly into Ford ' s electric car system, not just the CarPlay model. The first type of car to carry this feature will be a new car for a $30,000 Ford sale。
