Apple is delving into personal robotics, exploring the development of an autonomous robot. Speculation includes a robot butler to assist users at home, redirecting resources from their abandoned car project. Plans entail a mobile home robot and a tabletop device using robotics, overseen by Apple’s AI and home product executives.

Apple is working on a mobile robot to follow users around and a tabletop device with a moving display. AI head John Giannandrea and home product executives are leading the project. The table-top device may mimic head movements on a FaceTime call, facing technical challenges with the robotic motor’s weight on a small stand.

Apple’s newest projects focus on robotics, potentially competing with Amazon’s Astro. Despite considerations and technical hurdles, these concepts are still in the early stages. The future release to the public remains uncertain.
