Apple tabletop robot prototype

To create the next generation of smart home devices, Apple is considering both humanoid and non-humanoid robots. At least, top insider Ming-Chi Kuo confirms this. In a post on X, the analyst says Apple is in "the early proof-of-concept stage internally."

Kuo says that while the industry debates the "merits of humanoid vs. non-humanoid designs, supply chain checks indicate Apple cares more about how users build perception with robots than their physical appearance." The analysts state that this is the reason why Apple uses an anthropomorphic instead of a humanoid style, "implying sensing hardware and software serve as the core technologies."
