The tiny cameras would not be for taking photos, but rather serve as infrared sensors.

    I know Apple already has the ability to see an almost constant 360 view of my life in 4K from my phone, but it’s a bit weird to think of cameras in AirPods.

    Hand gestures to pause/play or adjust volume might be cool tho

    I’d rather they just come in a few color options and with improved battery life.

    But the vision pro example makes no sense.

    If the Vision Pro has positional tracking already what’s gained by tracking in the AirPods?

    I wonder if this is some Tyrion Lannister thing where Apple told different people things that seem just crazy enough that they were working on to find the leaks. “Apple will install heating pads on all AirPods to keep your ears warm in winter.” “The next iPhone will come with a port for smellovision.”
