Apple to Introduce AI-Driven Smart Home 'Command Center' in March 2025

The upcoming device will feature a touch-based interface and integrate with Apple's ecosystem to control smart home products.

Apple's new smart home display will measure approximately six inches and include a camera for FaceTime, internal speakers, and a rechargeable battery.
The device, designed as a 'command center,' will operate with a mix of voice control and a touch-based interface, integrating Apple Intelligence for app and task management.
Security features will include alerts and camera footage from connected smart home cameras, with built-in sensors to adjust settings based on proximity.
Apple plans to compete with similar devices from Amazon and Google, with pricing likely aligned with the Echo Hub and Nest Hub Max.
Future developments may include a robotic version of the hub and potential expansion into smart home accessories like cameras.
