CUPERTINO (dpa-AFX) - Apple (AAPL) is planning to start mass production of
new AirPods with 'camera modules' by 2026, according to a report by analyst
Ming-Chi Kuo.

The infrared cameras, to be similar to the iPhone's Face ID receiver, would
enhance the spatial computing and audio experience.

Kuo stated that the cameras would detect environmental image changes,
'potentially enabling in-air gesture control to enhance human-device
interaction.'

The new AirPods would enhance the audio experience of Vision Pro and future
Apple Vision headset users.

The analyst further said Foxconn is the 'new product introduction supplier for
the IR camera that will be used with AirPods'.

Earlier, Mark Gurman of Bloomberg reported that the tech giant is planning to
develop AirPods with cameras, 9To5Mac reports.
