Apple may be developing its own AI wearable, according to a report published Wednesday by The Information. The device will be a pin that users can wear on their clothing and that comes equipped with two cameras and three microphones, the report says. Apple's device is described as a thin, flat, circular disc with an aluminum and glass shell. Engineers hope to make the device the same size as an AirTag, only slightly thicker. The pin will also have two cameras, one with a standard lens and another with a wide angle lens, for pictures and video, as well as a physical button, a speaker, and a charging strip like the one on a Fitbit device on its back, according to the report. Apple may be trying to accelerate development of this product. The pin could potentially be released in 2027 and involve 20 million units at launch, the report notes. TechCrunch reached out to Apple for more information.
