Leaked Video Shows Apple AirPods with Cameras and Visual Intelligence Features
Apple is reportedly developing new AirPods equipped with cameras that integrate with its Visual Intelligence feature, allowing Siri to recognize and save information about objects in the wearer’s environment. A leaked video from macOS Tahoe 26.7 shows a demonstration of these earbuds reading a book title and alerting users if hair obstructs the cameras. The device, codenamed B790, is expected to launch alongside the iPhone 18 Pro, with another model, B798, in development for 2027. The cameras are designed for environmental awareness, not traditional photography.
