Apple is developing an AI wearable device described as a pin or pendant, potentially launching as early as 2027. The pin will measure roughly AirTag-sized with an aluminum and glass shell, featuring a physical button and wireless charging. Apple plans to market it primarily as an iPhone accessory rather than a standalone product, positioning it as the device's 'eyes and ears' according to internal discussions. Visual Intelligence will power its camera capabilities, which may provide environmental data without capturing photos, though conflicting reports suggest potential video functionality. Siri will be upgraded via iOS 27, integrating with Google's Gemini to rival competitors like OpenAI's rumored ChatGPT-powered wearable.

Development is early-stage, with no speaker confirmed yet, and the device's camera specifics remain uncertain.
