Apple’s AI Glasses Preview: Gesture Control Without a Screen at Launch

Apple is developing AI smart glasses with two cameras—a high‑resolution sensor for photos/videos and a low‑resolution wide‑angle camera for gesture input and Siri—leaning on hand gestures since the first version will have no display, LiDAR, or 3D cameras to conserve battery life. The device may use acetate styling and run a smarter Siri coming in iOS 27, with a possible preview this year and a 2027 launch window to compete with Meta’s Ray‑Bans.

The Apple Watch 9 introduces Double Tap, a gesture control feature that allows users to interact with the smartwatch without touching it. However, this concept is not entirely new, as Apple had previously introduced AssistiveTouch for Apple Watch, which enables users with upper body limb differences to navigate the watch through hand gestures. While AssistiveTouch is available on Apple Watch models since the Watch 6, Double Tap is exclusive to the Apple Watch 9 and Ultra 2, thanks to the new S9 SiP chip.
