Apple’s AI Pendant Leaves Processing to iPhone, Echoing Humane’s Concept

Bloomberg sources say Apple is developing an iPhone-dependent AI pendant worn on clothing, with a camera for computer vision and a Siri-enabled microphone (and possibly a speaker); it would offload most processing to the iPhone, making it lighter in on-device power. The device mirrors Humane’s AI Pin but reportedly won’t do much on its own. Apple is also reportedly developing smart glasses with dual cameras and AI features, tightly integrated with the iPhone, though both projects are still early and release timing is unclear.
