Rumored Apple Smart Glasses Mentioned in Supplier's Earnings Briefing
Apple's rumored smart glasses and AirPods with cameras may have been referenced by Chinese manufacturing equipment supplier Quick Intelligent Equipment, according to a Securities Times report on the company's quarterly earnings briefing. The company claimed it has been involved in "Apple's AI glasses and new smart earphones projects," which could boost demand for its machine vision inspection equipment.
Apple is reportedly targeting a late 2027 launch for its first smart glasses, expected to help answer questions about the wearer's surroundings and translate languages. Apple is also reportedly developing AirPods with cameras, set to arrive alongside the 20th-anniversary iPhone.
