Apple developing $1,000 tabletop robot with iPad-like display for 2026 release

Apple is advancing its development of a high-end tabletop device, combining an iPad-like display with a robotic arm, aiming for a 2026 or 2027 launch. This device, codenamed J595, is intended to serve as a smart home command center, videoconferencing tool, and home security assistant. The project, led by Kevin Lynch, focuses on integrating Siri and AI features. Apple's push into robotics follows the recent discontinuation of its self-driving car project and is part of a broader strategy to explore new revenue streams amidst challenges in existing markets.
