Apple wants to release its first record in the Emerging Smart category in 2026, according to information that escaped from the company on Thursday. This is a more aggressive starting window than it was previously said.
The AI-powered device will be able to handle many of the tasks that people are turning to the iPhone and will compete with the popular Ray-Ban Meta.
2026 could launch the first Apple glasses
Although we love our iPhones, the disadvantage is that we have to sweat them from our pockets to check or walk after hosting the phone. And require a free hand.
But intelligent glasses are always in front of our eyes and are without hands. Their problem is that technology that is truly useful is still in development. Strong computer into something as small as glasses is a serious technological challenge.
However, it is a challenge Apple allegedly captivated and the company moves aggressively. He now plans to have his first glasses on the market by the end of 2026, according to an unconfirmed report from Bloomberg. Previously, the rumors indicated that the chip to go into the product would not be ready.
A set of primary functions uses Apple’s work on artificial intelligence, including visual intelligence.
“Apple’s glasses should have cameras, microphones, and speakers that would allow them to analyze the external world and accept applications through the Siri voice assistant. They could also process tasks such as telephone calls, music playback, live translations and rotation instructions. Bloomberg.
There are many questions left
It is not yet clear where the first glasses will have a screen. They could be unauthorized by voice, which would reduce costs and weight and at the same time increase the battery life. The first generation of Ray-Ban Meta metasis attracted the storey-free stores without a display. However, the screen version will be reportedly running at the end of this year.
Cupertino assumes that he plans to build his intelligent glasses surrounding the simplified version of The Chip Night in Apple Watch. This will reduce its capacity but extend the battery life.
The price is also unknown. Meta Ray-Ban Goggles are just $ 299, but the upcoming version with the screen could cost up to $ 1.400. Which end of the Apple scale ends on its function assembly, race.
Not the original Apple Plan
As the Vision Pro and Apple suddenly, the development of the Vision Pro and Apple set hoping that technological improvements would allow subsequent models to reduce the size that was accompanied by a eventually developed on light intelligent glasses with strong increased reality. However, the pace of technological development will not follow the step with the hope of Apple, and it will be Mary for years before the headset of vision, which resembles common glasses.
As a result, the company reportedly began to explore another option: relatively simple intelligent glasses. It could bring it to the market much earlier.
However, they do not take it as a sign that Apple has abandoned the development of future Vision Pro. The company is reportedly working on both product lines. It seems that the plan is to be powerful but bulky vision for smaller and more affordable, while using simple intelligent glasses and adding functions. They probably meet in the middle somewhere along the border.
