☄️ Apple ሰሞኑን ሚለቃቸው Features

Apple is getting ready to unveil its biggest iOS 18 update yet. One of the most interesting innovations is Eye-Tracking.

Eye-Tracking is a feature that lets users control their iPhones and iPad with their eyes, which is especially beneficial for people with physical disabilities.

How does it work?

1. The front camera tracks the user's eye movements.

2. Setup and calibration take just a few seconds, during which the camera captures eye movement data.

3. AI and machine learning models interpret the gaze and eye movements in real-time.

4. Users can scroll through feeds, switch between apps, control buttons, swipe, and perform other basic actions hands-free, simply by looking at them.

5. To select an option, users need to fix their gaze for a set amount of time. This technology is known as "Dwell Control."

No additional equipment is required. The feature will be free.

🆕 What else is new?

⚫️ Vehicle Motion Cues. Reduces the effects of motion sickness in transport when using a gadget. Animated dots on the edges of the screen adjust to the motion of the vehicle, reducing sensory conflict between what a person sees and what they feel while driving.

⚫️ Listen for Atypical Speech. Improves interaction for people with speech impairments. AI recognizes and remembers a wide range of speech and communication abilities of a particular user.

⚫️ Music Haptics. Allows deaf and hard-of-hearing users to "experience" music through touchscreen vibration. The phone will play taps, textures, and refined vibrations to the audio of the music. Music Haptics works with millions of songs in the Apple Music catalog.

In brief

— Siri will get generative AI to answer questions, exactly like ChatGPT.
— Apple Music will have a feature to generate your own music.
— Apple News will have an AI model to highlight what's important from the news.

The 2024 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) kicks off on 10 June and runs until 14 June.
