The Tech Giant I Working to Evolve the Di Play-free Gla e Into a Robu T Health and Fitne a I Tant Over Time, Though the e Comprehen Ive

The tech giant is working to evolve the display-free glasses into a robust health and fitness assistant over time, though these comprehensive features won't debut with the first generation. Apple initially explored this health-focused approach with its Vision Pro headset, developing a special Apple Fitness+ version for workout videos, movement tracking, and closing fitness rings, but technical hurdles and the device's weight shelved those plans. The lighter smart glasses are now viewed as a better fit.

Job postings from Apple's Vision Products Group, which handles glasses and future headset projects, reveal the company is recruiting leaders to shape wearable tech and health. Apple could also leverage heart-rate sensors from products like AirPods Pro 3 and AI features such as Workout Buddy from the Apple Watch, while cameras on the glasses might analyze exercise form and help correct it.
