Apple is reportedly developing a chip for augmented reality glasses.
Sure! Here’s the rewritten content with the requested changes:
Apple is working on a bunch of specialized chips, demonstrating the company's commitment to AI. It also indicates that Apple hasn't given up on its own version of smart glasses. According to a new Bloomberg report, Apple is developing chips for wearable devices, including its first-ever smart glasses. We're not talking about the company's Vision Pro mixed reality headset, but something akin to Ray-Ban's smart glasses, which wear like normal glasses but are equipped with speakers, cameras, and some basic AI capabilities. This particular chip is based on the processor used in the Apple Watch, only it's been customized to make it even more power efficient. It will also be able to control the "multiple cameras" that Apple plans to build into its smart glasses. The chip should be ready for mass production by the end of 2026 or sometime in 2027, meaning that's roughly when Apple could launch the smart glasses.
Apple is reportedly working on two different versions of the smart glasses: one simpler, lightweight, and similar to the Ray-Ban’s, and the other featuring AR capabilities. Apple is also developing several new chips for Macs, including those likely to be named M6 and M7. There's also a "more advanced" Mac chip in development, but details are scarce beyond its codename: Sotra.
Finally, Apple is working on specialized chips for AI servers, expected to be available in 2027. These servers will handle remote processing of Apple Intelligence requests from customers — currently, Apple uses its high-end Mac chips for this purpose, such as the M2 Ultra. Ultimately, this means that AI requests would be completed faster, paving the way for more powerful AI capabilities in the future.
