Apple is always on the cutting edge of technology, and now rumors are swirling about their potential venture into home robotics. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple may be exploring personal robotics for the home as a new revenue stream after axing its self-driving electric car project.

Here are some key points to consider:

– Apple engineers are reportedly working on a mobile robot that can follow users around the home.
– They are also developing a table-top device with a smart display that moves.
– The robotic smart display seems to be more advanced than the mobile robot.
– The robotics research at Apple falls under the hardware engineering division and AI and machine-learning group, overseen by John Giannandrea.
– Executives Matt Costello and Brian Lynch, who focus on home products, are leading the hardware development efforts.

While these projects show promise, Apple has not fully committed to them yet. They are still in the research phase, with a testing facility near their Cupertino headquarters dedicated to future home device initiatives.

It’s important to note that while Apple continues to innovate in various areas, some customers feel that recent releases like the iPhone and iPad have been lacking excitement. As we await further developments in Apple’s potential foray into home robotics, let’s keep our fingers crossed for more groundbreaking products from this tech giant.
