According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is developing a cylindrical home security camera that won't record video, instead using AI to analyze motion and perform facial recognition, sending users text-based alerts about who has entered a room. The device is reportedly a companion to an unannounced smart home display (internally called J490), part of a broader smart home push that also includes new HomePod mini and Apple TV models supporting Siri's AI features, alongside a home hub expected as soon as October.

Instead it reportedly uses a low-frame-rate sensor, facial recognition and infrared sensing to detect activity and trigger automations, rather than streaming or storing footage like HomeKit Secure Video cameras.
