Apple reportedly working on domestic robots. Here's everything we know

  • Apple is reportedly developing a range of domestic robots, including an ambitious machine capable of folding laundry.

  • The advanced HomeView hub prototype reportedly uses sensors and cameras to act autonomously, such as turning on lights when a person enters a room.
  • Apple has a history of abandoning ambitious efforts, such as its self-driving car project, though Tim Cook recently hinted at upcoming releases in new categories.
  • The tech giant has previously created internal-use robots, including Liam and Daisy, which disassemble end-of-life iPhones for material recycling.
