苹果表示正在为智能眼镜，Mac 等开发新芯片
Apple is reportedly developing new chips to drive smart glasses similar to Meta’s Ray-Ban Meta as well as more powerful Macs and AI servers.
据报道 ，苹果正在开发新的芯片，以驱动类似于 Meta 的雷朋（Ray-Ban）Meta 的智能眼镜，以及更强大的 Mac 和 AI 服务器。
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman notes that one of the chips is inspired by the Apple Watch’s low-power processors. Apple aims to put these chips into mass production with TSMC by the end of next year or 2027, according to the report.
彭博社的 Mark Gurman 指出，其中一款芯片的灵感来自 Apple Watch 的低功耗处理器。报道称，苹果的目标是在明年年底或 2027 年之前与台积电一起将这些芯片投入量产。
Glasses are a big focus. Bloomberg has previously reported that Apple CEO Tim Cook is determined to beat Meta in the glasses market, where the latter has seen success in recent years. Since 2023, Meta has sold around 2 million pairs of Ray-Ban Metas.
眼镜是一个很大的焦点。彭博社此前曾报道称，苹果首席执行官蒂姆·库克决心在眼镜市场击败 Meta，后者近年来在眼镜市场取得了成功。自 2023 年以来，Meta 已售出约 200 万双 Ray-Ban Meta。
According to Bloomberg, Apple is currently exploring non-AR glasses that use cameras to scan the surrounding environment and rely on AI to assist users. One of the processors under development will be able to control these cameras and other components without draining too much battery, per the report.
据彭博社报道，苹果目前正在探索非 AR 眼镜，使用摄像头扫描周围环境，依靠 AI 来协助用户。其中一个正在开发的处理器将能够控制这些摄像头和其他组件，而不会消耗太多电池。
