Apple is reportedly planning to begin mass production of new AirPods with built-in infra-red (IR) camera modules by 2026. According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, these IR cameras will enhance the spatial audio and computing experience with Apple Vision Pro by detecting head movements and automatically adjusting audio output. The cameras will also enable new in-air control gestures, similar to the technology used in the iPhone Face ID receiver. This development aims to tightly integrate the AirPods with Apple Vision Pro, providing an improved and immersive spatial computing experience.
