According to some increasingly insistent rumors, as well as coming from authoritative sources when it comes to technological novelties at home Applethe Cupertino company would already be at work to create a revolutionary innovation that will allow to increase the level of performance of its AirPods Pro.
The goal is to aim for a new generation of “intelligent” earphones, integrating a digital camera thanks to which it will be possible to collect a series of information on the surrounding environment to be exploited to the best through the interaction with the AI.
According to the advances released online by Bloomberg’s analyst Mark Gurman in the “Poweron” newsletter, Apple’s developers would already be working to carry out the ambitious project in the fastest possible times. The source is decidedly authoritative, and the expert seems quite sure that it will not have to wait too long before seeing the new ones AirPods Pro On the market, as far as it is legitimate at the moment that it should not be the earphones of “third generation”, the next arrival, but of a subsequent edition: for now there is talk of an wait of less than two years, a period of time that, given the amount of work between hardware and software integration, is certainly not excessive.
But what should be the function of this video camera? Certainly not to take photographs, but to operate in unison with Apple Intelligence and make services and assistance available to the user in real time monitoring and recognizing the surrounding environment in which it moves. In essence, the AirPods Pro revuzonaries would perform a constant support function to the Apple customer without needing to intergon with its own mobile phone, more or less as already happens with smart glasses.
The voices of an integration between the earphones of the Cupertino giant and a visual support had already been released by another great expert in the sector such as Ming-Chi Kuo, who had spoken of infrared cameras very similar to those already used in the Face ID technology of Apple smartphones.
Now the hypothesis is that the earphones can become a tool for expanding the functionality of Visual Intelligence, with a real -time support on the basis of the surrounding environment: for the ambitious project there will be to wait until still until 2027, but the revolution is now around the corner.
