, which the Cupertino-based company has been working on for at least a decade. As journalist Mark Gurman explained, the iPhone manufacturer had problems with implementing its vision for the Apple Car almost from the very beginning. The company was also afraid that this product would not generate high margins.

This does not mean, however, that Apple has stopped exploring new market niches. On the contrary. The company is currently working on several smart home projects, and one of them sounds quite futuristic.

Is Apple working on a home robot? This is Kerfuś “on steroids”

The above-mentioned Mark Gurman, one of the best-informed sources on all matters related to Apple, has just reported that the Cupertino giant is preparing at least three completely new products – most of them are in the initial stages of development.

The first of them is to be a tablet. This is probably a modified version of the iPad that will enable us to manage the smart home system (e.g. lighting control or even remote control of home appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators). The second piece of equipment would be the HomePod speaker with a built-in and rotatable screen.

However, now in , an autonomous robot with the face of a kitten, which won the hearts of customers of the Carrefour store chain some time ago. Kerfu¶ is a model of the self-propelled BellaBot robot from Pudu Robotics, which is equipped with multimedia functions, such as Al voice interactions or interactions using light signals. The most impressive thing, however, is the built-in screen that resembles Kerfus’ face and imitates a cat’s face.
