Summary at a Glance

This isn't the first time we've heard Apple may be gearing up to release an Apple robot.

Apple Machine Learning Research has released a short video and a twelve-page accompanying paper showcasing the importance of human-like movement in its prototyped robot.

"Through a user study comparing expression-driven versus function-driven movements across six task scenarios, our findings indicate that expression-driven movements significantly enhance user engagement and perceived robot qualities," the abstract reads.

There are now two ways to create Memories movies in Photos as of iOS 18.1 or later: one method is the same way you have done it in previous iOS versions, and the new one leverages Apple Intelligence if it's available on your device.

The person uses gestures to control the robot, showing how waving, pointing, and pushing could be used to bring the light closer, change its focus, or move it further away.
