据报道，苹果公司正在从多个产品类别上进行自己的微芯片

彭博社5月8日的报告援引熟悉此事的人的话说，该公司正在为新的处理器开发以为未来设备提供动力

Apple is working on making its own microchips across multiple product categories, including smart glasses and artificial intelligence, a new report said.

一份新报告说，苹果公司正在努力在包括智能眼镜和人工智能在内的多个产品类别中制作自己的微芯片。

The company is working on new processors to power its future devices, such as its first smart glasses to rival Meta’s Ray-Bans, more powerful Macs and artificial intelligence servers, a May 8 report by Bloomberg said, citing people familiar with the matter.

彭博社5月8日，彭博社报道说，该公司正在为新处理器提供新的处理器，以供其未来的设备供电，例如其第一批智能眼镜竞争Meta的Ray-Bans，功能更强大的Mac和人工智能服务器。

Apple’s smart glasses would rely on a specialized chip codenamed N401. The processor is based on Apple Watch chips but is further optimized for power efficiency and designed to control multiple cameras planned for the glasses, the sources said.

苹果的智能眼镜将依靠代号为N401的专业芯片。消息人士称，该处理器基于Apple Watch芯片，但针对功率效率进行了进一步优化，并旨在控制计划为这些眼镜的多个摄像机。

They would initially be non-augmented reality versions that will include cameras, microphones and integrated AI, much like rival offerings from Meta. They would presumably have similar functions like snapping photos, recording video and offering translation options, the report added.

最初，它们将是不阐述的现实版本，其中包括相机，麦克风和集成的AI，就像Meta的竞争对手产品一样。报告补充说，他们大概具有类似的功能，例如拍摄照片，录制视频和提供翻译选项。

The product may also integrate a visual intelligence feature for scanning the environment and describing objects, looking up information about products and providing directions.

该产品还可以整合一个视觉智能功能，以扫描环境并描述对象，查找有关产品的信息并提供说明。

Mass production targeted for late 2026 or 2027, suggesting a product launch within approximately two years, they added.

他们补充说，大规模生产针对2026年末或2027年，这表明在大约两年内推出了产品。

The Bloomberg sources added that other semiconductors were also developing chips to power future Macs and AI servers that can power the firm’s “Apple Intelligence” platform.

彭博社的消息人士补充说，其他半导体也正在开发芯片，为未来的Mac和AI服务器提供动力，可以为公司的“苹果智能”平台提供动力。

Meanwhile, MacRumors reported that chips codenamed “Komodo” will likely be M6 chips that will follow this year’s M5 chips, while chips codenamed “Borneo” will be Apple’s future M7 processors with another more advanced chip that will debut in the future codenamed “Sotra.”

同时，Macrumors报道说，编号为“ Komodo”的芯片可能是M6芯片，将遵循今年的M5芯片，而编码为“婆罗洲”的芯片将是Apple的未来M7处理器，并将使用另一个更高级的芯片，将在未来的代号“ Sotra”中首次亮相。

Dedicated Apple AI chips

专用的苹果AI芯片

Apple is also working on its first dedicated AI server chips in a project codenamed “Baltra” to power its Apple Intelligence platform, according to Bloomberg.

据彭博社报道，苹果还在编号为“ Baltra”的项目中为其苹果智能平台提供动力的第一个专用AI服务器芯片。

The firm’s Baltra chips could have up to eight times the processing and graphics cores of the current M3 Ultra chips, the report added. Apple has targeted completion by 2027 to make its AI services faster and more competitive.

报告补充说，该公司的Baltra芯片最多可能是当前M3 Ultra芯片的加工和图形核心的八倍。到2027年，苹果公司的目标是使其AI服务更快，更具竞争力。

In late April, it was reported that Chinese tech giant Huawei has developed a powerful AI chip that could rival high-end processors from U.S. chip maker Nvidia.

据报道，4月下旬，中国科技巨头华为开发了一种强大的AI芯片，可以与美国芯片制造商Nvidia的高端处理器相媲美。
