It's been months
that we talk about theiWatchsans
for having seen anything. However, Apple has started to put on
set up a team of shocks with the aim of preparing this watch so much
expected.
Hardware or software engineers, work on sensors, manufacturing…
Apple didn't start working today and these are probably
dozens of prototypes which have already seen the light of day until reaching the
perfection :
If, today, many of us never leave our iPhone,
it is very likely that within a few years the technology will no longer be
portable, but to carry.
Technology, marketing…the teams in place
If Google decided to take down the glasses card first, at Apple,
it is the wrist that we are interested in.Tim Cookin person
always wears his Nike Fuel bracelet which he thinks is the greatest
GOOD.
In the organization, it is the indestructibleBob MansfielWho
is supposed to be the key to the development of wearable devices at Apple.
When he was due to retire in mid-2012, Apple narrowly retained him
to work on 'future products'. Since then, it has been rumored that man and
his team works on wellness devices.
On the Marketing side, it has been reported that Phil Schiller and his team
are closely interested in new products like Jawbone Up. As in every
business, marketing must both analyze the current market, but
also define product directions.
Today, knowing whether Apple will launch or not is no longer really the
question as the clues and allusions are numerous. It just remains to be known
When !
An iWatch? Yes, but when!
Rumors are numerous regarding the watch, however, it is
Today it is difficult to know when Apple will launch its watch. Bloomberg
saw the launch in 2013 while the Financial Times recently reported the
fin 2014…
Anyway the teams are working, according to 9to5Mac, in the most
big secret in a separate building. Two distinct groups would even have been
created. The first, under the leadership of Kevin Lynch, works on the aspect
software while the second focuses more on functionalities and
the more technical side of the device.
Of course, Dan Riccio's engineers, Jony Ives' designers and
the developers of Craig Federighi can at any time be
requested.
Legendary teams
In these two groups which work closely together, Apple has
chose to integrate his followers. We thus find some of those who created
the iPod as well as a series of experts in sensors, chips and batteries in all
genre.
It's a sort of Dream Team as Scott put it together.
Forstall at the time to imagine the first version of what was to become
iOS
In each of its services, Apple has legally sought the
better for working, for example, on autonomy. The Cupertino company has
also brought together some of the original iPhone team to work on
miniaturization of components.
You understand, not just any employee is authorized to work
on the project. Once again, and as often in its history, Apple has
chose the best of the best to design its product
Numerous sensors for a multitude of functionalities
The main challenge faced with this watch is undoubtedly to still make
smaller components. For this, Apple went to poach experts
having designed chips like Infineon and XMOS.
Some sources also claim that the Authentec teams
are also working on the watch, which would suggest the integration of the
fingerprint sensor. However, most of the team would be
busy with the iPhone especially since it seems that the technology allowing
to integrate the sensor into the screen may not be ready for several
years.
Apple also seems to be interested in our sleep and it could well be that
the watch can capture and analyze our habits when we are
asleep.
Whatever happens, the iWatch should be jam-packed with sensors if anything.
believes the numerous patents filed. Light, distance, speed, sport and even
medicine… the Apple watch will probably be multifunctional and will be able to
make it indispensable.
A real health and well-being accessory
Via patents and recruitment, it seems that Apple wants to make its
shows a real health and well-being accessory. Thus, the Cupertino company
went to recruit in several scientific companies to work on
the sensors.
Among these companies, some are downright specialized in
the integration of sensors capable of measuring, for example, glucose by simple
contact with skin. It is easy to imagine the application integrated into the
watch.
Apple would also have taken care to seek advice from a famous teacher
fitness studio in the US who also worked on the Nike bracelet.
A watch 'designed in California'
When it arrives, this watch made in Apple will inevitably
talk a lot. To make it a separate product, a luxury product, Apple
even surrounded himself with the former CEO of Yves Saint-Laurent.
Well expanded, Apple will not be alone and the other giants such as Samsung,
Microsoft or Google are also in the running.
The watch war will be tough, but probably exciting!
