This product is likely to be the AirPods model with integrated camera that has been rumored in the past.
In the source code of iOS 27 beta 2, the operating system contains a description related to the device codenamed B790. The content shows that the product will use two cameras placed on both sides of the user's head, suggesting how AirPods can collect environmental images to serve the Visual Intelligence feature.
Previously, Apple was said to be developing a new generation AirPods Pro version integrated with a camera to bring Visual Intelligence to headphones. Thanks to that, users can ask Siri about what is happening around them without having to take out their iPhone to scan or take pictures.
According to recent rumors, the integrated camera AirPods were expected to be launched this year but were postponed due to software-related issues. If the plan does not change, the product may appear in the fall of next year, along with the iPhone 20th anniversary.
If realized, this could be a notable step forward in Apple's strategy of bringing artificial intelligence to wearable devices. The integration of Visual Intelligence directly on AirPods promises to bring a faster and more convenient Siri interaction experience, reducing dependence on iPhones in many daily situations.
