Apple Advances in Home Robotics with New $1,000 Device Led by Kevin Lynch
Aug 14, 2024, 06:20 PM
Apple Inc. is advancing in the development of a new tabletop home device that integrates an iPad-like display with a robotic limb. The device, envisioned as a smart home hub, video conferencing tool, and security device, marks a significant shift in Apple's strategy towards home robotics. The project is being led by Kevin Lynch, the former head of Apple's car initiative, indicating a pivot from the company's previous automotive ambitions. This move comes as Apple seeks new revenue sources, with the device expected to be priced around $1,000 and potentially released between 2026 and 2027. The company has dedicated a team of several hundred people to work on this project, highlighting its importance in Apple's future plans. Apple spent $30B on R&D last year.
