Apple is preparing for its September 2026 event, where the company will introduce the iPhone 18 series. Alongside smartphones, several other products may also appear. Meanwhile, a new Apple product has gained attention online. Reports suggest the company is developing AirPods with cameras. The design of these camera-enabled AirPods has reportedly appeared online.
Camera AirPods Could Bring Visual Intelligence Features
According to a MacRumors report, a video showing camera AirPods has gone viral on social media platform X. However, the video is considered a demonstration clip. The footage shows users wearing these AirPods with camera capabilities.
These AirPods will reportedly focus beyond normal photo or video recording. The cameras may work with Visual Intelligence features. This could allow users to ask Siri questions about objects they see after wearing the device.
The concept suggests a new interaction method between users and their surroundings. The camera may identify things visible to users. Afterwards, Siri could provide related information through connected intelligence features.
Apple’s B790 Project Remains Under Development
Media reports suggest Apple is developing this product under the codename B790. The company has reportedly worked on this device for around four years. However, Apple has not shared any official information about the product.
At present, details about the number and type of features remain unclear. The available information only indicates the camera’s possible role. The device may provide information about objects after observing them through the built-in camera.
Possible September 2026 Launch With iPhone 18 Series
Reports suggest the product currently remains in the testing phase. Earlier expectations pointed towards a launch during the beginning of the year. However, fresh reports indicate Apple may introduce these AirPods in September 2026.
This means Apple could present the product alongside the iPhone 18 series. However, if the company delays the launch, it may arrive during the beginning of next year. Currently, Apple has not released any official details about this upcoming device.
