Summary

Apple's home robotics projects are accelerating with increased hiring of specialists to 'bring new experiences to Apple products.' The team, led by VP of Technology Kevin Lynch, is focusing on smart home devices that have a basic level of personality. They are reportedly working on at least two robotics projects: a mobile device that can follow the user around and a tabletop 'smart lamp' with an expressive demeanor.

The smart lamp is designed to respond to user gestures and vocal commands, demonstrate attentiveness, and even project tutorial videos. The team is also exploring the idea of a home hub for controlling various systems like security and environmental control. Apple aims to enhance existing smart-home technology by adding more personal interactions.

While the projects are still in development, a range of such devices and accessories might be launched as early as later this year.
