Rare Apple-1 With Steve Jobs Letter Sells for

The Hatfield Apple-1 has sold for $1,148,200 including the buyer's premium, setting a world auction record for a commercially sold Apple-1, according to Bonhams . Two bidders competed for 28 minutes before the October 14 auction closed, taking the working computer beyond its $500,000 to $800,000 estimate . The machine takes its name from original owner Fred Hatfield, who complained to Apple about the lack of software for the Apple-1. A letter included in the sale contains Steve Jobs' 1978 reply, offering an Apple II motherboard in exchange for the Apple-1 and another $400 . Hatfield kept his computer. He eventually sold it privately for $40,000 while it needed repairs. The buyer restored it and obtained Steve Wozniak's signature on the motherboard before it set an auction record in 2013 . Bonhams lists that earlier sale as approximately $686,000. Apple-1 prototypes have fetched more in the past. The Celebration board, which sold for $815,000 in 2016 , sold for $2.75 million in January 2026.

Apple Now Inviting Media to October 28

Apple has begun inviting selected members of the media to a product launch experience in Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 28, according to Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman . In a post on X, Gurman described the gathering as an all-day product launch experience for touchscreen MacBooks, a new iPad mini , and Macs equipped with M6 chips. Gurman previously reported that Apple would introduce the devices on or around Tuesday, October 27, with an online video presentation and a hands-on experience for the media. His latest post specifies October 28 for the media gathering, but does not say whether the product announcements will take place that day or beforehand. The touchscreen MacBooks are expected to be redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, featuring OLED displays, a Dynamic Island , and significantly lighter designs . While earlier rumors suggested Apple could use the MacBook Ultra name, Gurman's report from earlier this month suggested the devices would remain in the MacBook Pro family. Alongside the redesigned high-end machines, Apple is expected to introduce M6 versions of the 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac . The new iPad mini is expected to gain an OLED display , a front-facing camera positioned for landscape video calls, and a redesigned speaker system.

Murata and MELT Showcase Award-Winning ContactGlove3 Pro For Robotic Hand Training

Murata Manufacturing is back at CEATEC 2026 with several technology demonstrations, led by the award-winning ContactGlove3 Pro , an advanced hand-tracking glove developed by MELT Interface Technologies in collaboration with Murata . The technology received a CEATEC AWARD 2026 Excellence Award for its ability to capture precise human finger movements and generate valuable data for robotics and Physical AI applications. Last year at CEATEC, Murata showcased its beautifully designed echorb , which I experienced through multiple sensory-based demonstrations combining haptics, art, and human interaction. This years highlight takes a more industrial direction, exploring how human dexterity can help train future generations of robots. ContactGlove3 Pro: Capturing Human Hand Movements for Robot Training During our visit to Muratas booth, we spoke with Austin Kazami, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Business Development Department at MELT Interface Technologies , who demonstrated the ContactGlove3 Pro and explained its latest improvements. As the demonstrator moved his fingers while wearing the glove, his hand movements were reproduced in real time on a digital hand displayed on a nearby screen and by a physical robotic hand mounted on a robotic arm beside him . The demonstration illustrated how human gestures can be converted into digital data and used to control robotic systems. Unlike camera-based systems, the glove uses electromagnetic-field (EMF) sensing to track finger movements without external cameras, avoiding problems caused by obstructed views or poor lighting. Murata provides its proprietary miniature, high-sensitivity, three-axis low-frequency (LF) antennas , integrated into the gloves fingertips. These components help MELT measure finger positions and orientations in three dimensions while maintaining a compact, energy-efficient design. According to Murata, its antenna technology delivers about three times the power efficiency of existing EMF-based gloves with the same battery capacity. The glove employs MELTs proprietary Zero-Drift Technology , which measures absolute finger positions rather than accumulating movement estimates over time, preventing tracking errors from building up during extended use. After an initial calibration, additional calibration is not normally required. According to MELT, the glove tracks all five fingers , achieving a median positional error of 0.5 mm and a maximum error of 1.5 mm under specified conditions . It operates at 100 Hz, with latency of 30 milliseconds or less. The system measures finger positions and orientations across 30 degrees of freedom (6DoF per finger) and outputs 25 degrees of freedom through a biomechanical model. Whats New in the ContactGlove3 Pro? Kazami told us that the latest model launched about a month before CEATEC 2026 and offers improved tracking accuracy. Compared with the standard ContactGlove3, the Pro version moves its tracking sensors from the second finger joints to the fingertips, enabling more precise measurements of delicate finger movements. This is particularly useful for capturing actions such as pinching small objects, grasping tools, and performing precise assembly tasks. Kazami also highlighted a significant technical challenge: nearby metal objects can interfere with electromagnetic tracking, particularly in industrial environments. MELT has developed noise-reduction technology that, according to Kazami, can reduce electromagnetic interference by up to 80% . He also emphasized competitive pricing, although he did not provide a specific comparison during our interview. The glove includes software and an SDK supporting ROS 2, C++, Python, Unity, Unreal Engine, and MotionBuilder , making it easier to integrate into robotic systems, motion-capture workflows, and research applications. Battery life reaches up to 10 hours, and MELT lists the Pro model at $3,999 in the United States , with availability planned for November 2026. Beyond live demonstrations, the objective is to build datasets of human movements that robots can learn from. Such data could help preserve skilled workers techniques and teach robots complex manipulation tasks that are difficult to program manually. The robotic hand cannot bend its palm, unlike its human counterpart. However, capturing human dexterity does not mean todays robotic hands can reproduce every gesture, as Kazami explained during our discussion. Robotic hands still have mechanical limitations compared with their human counterparts. For instance, the robotic hand demonstrated at the booth could not bend its palm, unlike its human counterpart. Murata and MELT announced their business alliance in September 2026 , with plans extending beyond hand tracking to other human-machine interfaces, including a voice-input device using Muratas piezoelectric technology. Visit Murata Booth at CEATEC 2026 Visitors can see the ContactGlove3 Pro demonstration at Murata Manufacturings booth #7H340 in Hall 7 , at Makuhari Messe. CEATEC 2026 runs from October 13 to 16. Other Technologies on Display Murata is also showcasing battery-free RFID sensor tags that detect strain and temperature changes in real time, along with glass-tube sensor tags designed to identify potential anomalies in infrastructure such as concrete structures. These technologies could help simplify inspections and maintenance without requiring batteries inside every sensor. Another experimental wearable uses a microneedle patch to detect trace biological substances and convert chemical reactions into electrical signals, with potential applications in future health-monitoring systems. In an unusual energy-harvesting demonstration, Murata uses beef fat as fuel . An enzyme breaks down the fat to produce glycerol, generating enough electrical power to illuminate an LED. Visitors can learn more about these technologies in Muratas official CEATEC 2026 exhibition information . Together, these exhibits demonstrate Muratas work across sensing, energy harvesting, and human-machine interfaces.

It introduces ASUSs ExpertBook A-series, joining the companys B and P series and ExpertBook Ultra. ASUS announced US availability beginning October 14 through the ASUS Store . Aimed at professionals, freelancers, and small teams, the A7 brings its key design features to the entry configuration: buyers dont need to choose the most expensive model to get the OLED screen or haptic touchpad. The chassis uses 6000-series aluminum, precision-milled for a rigid body with a clean, minimalist appearance. The 14-inch OLED display combines a sharp 2880 1800 resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate, making documents, images, and scrolling clearer and smoother. The glass haptic touchpad adds another feature buyers interact with throughout the workday. Hardware and Memory Limits According to ASUSs US launch announcement , the six announced configurations share the same memory and storage capacities. Component US Intel launch specifications Processor options Intel Core 5 320 or Core 7 350 Memory 16GB onboard LPDDR5X; not upgradable Storage 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD Display 14-inch, non-touch OLED; 2880 1800; 120Hz Battery 65Wh Weight 2.82 lb / approximately 1.28 kg The fixed 16GB RAM ceiling is worth considering before buying. It may suit everyday office work, but buyers expecting heavier multitasking or growing memory requirements cannot add more RAM later. ASUS claims up to 26 hours of battery life , based on its laboratory testing with local Full HD video playback. That is not a measurement of mixed office work, so independent testing will be needed to establish everyday endurance. Ports and Connectivity The Intel models include connections for external displays and common accessories. Both USB-C ports support charging and display output, although they use USB 3.2 Gen 2 rather than USB4. Port Quantity Capabilities USB-C 2 USB 3.2 Gen 2, charging and display output USB-A 1 USB 3.2 Gen 1 HDMI 1 HDMI 2.1 TMDS Audio jack 1 Combined headphones and microphone US Pricing Higher prices bring a different processor or Windows edition while retaining the same display, memory, and storage. Processor Windows 11 Home Windows 11 Pro Intel Core 5 320 $1,299.99 $1,499.99 Intel Core 7 350 $1,399.99 $1,599.99 ASUS also includes its ExpertGuardian security features, fingerprint sign-in through the power button, and five years of BIOS and driver security updates. The company offers three years of manufacturer coverage and one year of accidental damage protection. MIL-STD-810H durability testing adds lab validation, though it doesnt make the laptop damage-proof. A Lower-Priced Model Is Coming ASUS plans to expand the lineup in January 2027 , with configurations starting at $899 . The Verge reports that ASUS clarified the upcoming model will include 12GB of RAM , OLED, and a haptic touchpad. ASUS has also announced AMD Ryzen AI versions with USB4, but that announcement does not establish immediate US availability.

10 HomeView Features You Might Have Missed

Apple plans to launch the HomeView on November 13, so we have a month to go until we can learn more about it. Right now, we're limited to the information Apple has shared and what members of the media learned during limited hands-on time. We've rounded up some interesting HomeView tidbits you might have missed. Recipe walkthroughs - HomeView makes Safari recipes easier to follow by pulling out the ingredients and steps. You can tap on a Start Cooking button to get step-by-step instructions you can use as you cook. The device also supports multiple voice-activated timers. Siri access - You can say Siri (English only) or Hey Siri for hands-free access, but there are also options for activating Siri with a swipe down from the top of the display or using Type to Siri. Apple Intelligence - HomeView has some Apple Intelligence features built in. You or members of your household can use Siri AI for general knowledge questions if you don't have an Apple Intelligence iPhone or iPad , but you do need one for any requests involving personal context. Guests - Personal data is private, but guests can control smart home accessories, check the weather, set timers, and play music. Visitors can also AirPlay audio to the HomeView using peer-to-peer discovery. Adaptable interface - HomeView can tell when someone is approaching and parts of the interface will change based on proximity. If someone is across the room, it shows less information in a larger view. As the person approaches, the view can change to show more information. Faces - HomeView has multiple customizable faces similar to watch faces. Apple says some faces can wake with you in the morning, wind down with you at night. The Snoopy face, for example, has different animations based on time of day, weather, and holidays. Third-party apps - There's no App Store , but the HomeView has CarPlay-like software capabilities. It can show CarPlay audio and video apps from a linked iPhone. There are no CarPlay video apps except for Apple TV , so app developers will need to add support. Handoff - You can transfer songs, podcasts, calls, videos, and recipes from the iPhone to the HomeView. Live Activities - HomeView supports Live Activities, so if you have a timer running or get an incoming Intercom message, content will be visible while you use other apps. Sensors and HomeKit - The HomeView has temperature and humidity sensors that can be used in Home app scenes and automations. It also serves as a home hub for controlling HomeKit and Matter devices when you're away from home. HomeView is available for pre-order now, and it will launch on November 13. It is priced at $299 and comes in either a tabletop version with a speaker base or a wall-mounted version.

Apple Becomes Second Company to Close Above

Apple today closed with a market capitalization above $5 trillion, making it the second company to do so after Nvidia. As noted by The Wall Street Journal , Apple's market cap has exceeded $5 trillion six times before today during intraday trading, but this is the first time the company stayed above the mark at closing. Apple closed at $342.96, for a market cap of $5.005 trillion. The new valuation comes just over a month after John Ternus took over for Tim Cook as Apple CEO, and two days ahead of iPhone Duo pre-orders. While Apple surpassed Nvidia to briefly become the most valuable company in the world in July, Nvidia has since retaken the title and continues to hold the top spot with a market cap of $5.33 trillion.

Which Apple Home Devices Get Siri AI, and When

There's been some confusion about which of Apple's new and existing home devices will support Siri AI and when, because Siri AI isn't going to be available at launch on some products. Devices With Siri AI HomeView - Available at launch (November 13) Apple TV 4K (4th generation) - Available at launch (November 13) Apple TV 4K (3rd generation) - Available in tvOS 27.2 Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) - Available in tvOS 27.2 HomePod mini 2 - Ships October 30, Siri AI coming in a future software update Despite a report from CNET suggesting the first HomePod mini would support Siri AI , Apple has since confirmed that's not the case. No Siri AI Support Original HomePod mini Original HomePod Original Apple TV 4K (no tvOS 27) Apple TV HD (no tvOS 27) Unconfirmed HomePod 2 - Possibly coming, with mentions in website metadata Siri AI Requirements On the HomePod and Apple TV 4K models that support Siri AI, the home owner in the Home app must have an Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone or iPad on the latest version of the software. Siri AI has to be turned on, and it has to be set to a supported language. Other members of the household don't need an Apple Intelligence-enabled device once Siri AI is turned on, except for personal requests. HomeView does not require an Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone or iPad for Siri AI, except for requests that use personal context. Siri AI for HomeView, Apple TV 4K, and HomePod mini 2 is English only and is limited to the United States, Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, and the UK at launch. EU Restrictions Siri AI is not available in the EU on the iPhone and iPad, so Siri AI won't be available for home devices that support it. HomeView isn't even launching in the EU. Siri AI Beta Apple is still calling Siri AI a beta, and it will be in beta when it's available on HomeView, Apple TV 4K, and HomePod mini 2.

Kawasaki Four-Legged Robot Climbs Ship Hulls to Weld

Ship hull welding still means people on high-reach gear in heat and height. Kawasaki Heavy Industries just showed a different idea: a four-legged prototype that sticks to steel with electromagnets and is meant to weld, not only inspect (looks a bit like a wall-crawling GITS spider). According to NHK World, the robot measures only 60 by 44 by 29 centimeters (23.62 by 17.32 by 11.42 inches). It grips the ships hull with electromagnets, uses cameras and sensors to check seams, and decides how much welding is needed. That is physical AI in yard language: assess the joint, then weld. Do not read this as an inspection-only crawler. Kawasaki unveiled the prototype around Oct 6, 2026 at its Group Vision 2030 Progress Report Meeting. Trade coverage and Japanese broadcast put demonstration testing at Sakaide Works in Kagawa in 2027, with practical use targeted around 2028 (TBS frames full operation from FY2028). Treat that as a company timeline, not a machine already walking commercial hulls. NHK World links the push to a shortage of experienced welding engineers and the hope of keeping production going in high summer heat. Kawasakis Vision 2030 materials also flag labor-intensive shipbuilding and a decline in skilled welders. Broader Kawasaki R&D talks about welding, painting, and quality checks for open-space robots, but painting is not locked as an NHK-confirmed capability on this prototype. Leave paint as a program goal, not a demo claim. We wonder whether the first Sakaide runs will put a torch on the hull for real or mostly prove mobility and seam judgment. Either way, the real test is whether veteran weld judgment can transfer to a machine that climbs where people shouldnt have to. Watch 2027 at Sakaide. That is when this stops being a Vision meeting prop and becomes a yard tool, or does not. Kawasaki Four-Legged Robot Climbs Ship Hulls to Weld , original content from Ubergizmo .

The free Apple Invites app for the iPhone was updated today with two new features: hosts can now more easily manually add guests to an event and mark their RSVP status, and the app's Home Screen widget now supports the extra large size option. Released in February 2025, the Apple Invites app makes it easy to invite people to events, such as birthday parties and baby showers. The ability to create an event in the app requires subscribing to an iCloud+ plan with at least 50GB of storage for $0.99 per month, but anyone who receives an event link can RSVP for free on any device. Apple's full release notes for version 1.12.1 of the app: Hosts can now more easily manually add guests to the event and mark their RSVP status, so your guest list stays accurate even when someone confirms outside the app. Invites widget now supports the extra large size to give you more options to countdown on your Home Screen.

Fujitsu Fun Godzilla Demo Shows How Cities Could Rehearse a Real Disaster

Godzilla is approaching a crowded city, and there is roughly an hour to get people to safety. At CEATEC 2026 , Fujitsu turns that fictional emergency into a demonstration of technology that could help planners prepare for real catastrophes. The Godzilla-themed experience gives visitors an accessible introduction to the companys Social Digital Twin technology. The setting may seem amusing, but the problem behind it is serious. Japan faces significant earthquake and tsunami risks, making evacuation preparedness a practical concern. Getting large numbers of people out of danger requires understanding how they might move and respond when circumstances change. Fujitsus scenario takes place around Kawasaki Station during KAWASAKI FESTIVAL, with crowds filling the area. Godzilla has landed from Tokyo Bay and is expected to arrive approximately 60 minutes later. Visitors experience a digital rehearsal that simulates evacuating festival participants and other people to safe locations. This is a technology demonstration , using a fictional threat to illustrate how evacuation measures could be evaluated, with the help of Digital Twins technologies, before an actual emergency. A digital twin is a computer-based representation of something in the physical world, built using real-world data. It can help users explore how a system might behave under different conditions. Fujitsu extends that concept beyond equipment and buildings to include peoples behavior and social activities. Its Social Digital Twin combines AI with insights from behavioral economics to model how people make decisions, including choices that do not follow purely rational calculations. Applied to the CEATEC experience, this means recreating peoples movements and urban conditions digitally, then simulating different evacuation strategies. The purpose is to help decision-makers examine the effects of their options before putting them into practice. For visitors, Godzilla provides a memorable way to understand why modeling human behavior matters to disaster planning. The technologys backstory goes back to 2021 , when Fujitsu began researching Social Digital Twin technologies to address complex social challenges. In 2023, it announced digital rehearsal technology and began a trial with shared-mobility operator Beryl on Britains Isle of Wight. That project explored how changes to scooter availability and pricing incentives could affect travel choices, operating costs, and carbon emissions. The underlying idea was already the same: test a proposed measure digitally before implementing it. CEATEC attendees can explore Fujitsus Godzilla evacuation demonstration at booth 6H251 in Hall 6 , at Makuhari Messe. The show runs through October 16, offering visitors a chance to see how a virtual monster attack can explain a very real challenge in urban safety. Become Godzilla With GODZILLA in MOTION Fujitsus booth also lets visitors take on the role of Godzilla and destroy a virtual city. Attendees move their bodies, while skeleton-recognition AI captures those movements in real time and translates them into Godzillas actions on screen. The experience demonstrates how Fujitsu turns human movement into data that can control a digital character. The technology behind the experience is called skeleton-recognition AI . Here, skeleton refers to a digital representation of a persons body pose, allowing software to track movement. Fujitsu uses that movement data to animate the virtual character. Beyond entertainment, the company identifies sports, manufacturing, education, and healthcare as fields where skeleton recognition is finding applications.

OpenAI Says Ex-Employee Showed Its Device Plans to Apple

OpenAI today suggested Apple could be using its trade secrets, the very thing Apple is already suing OpenAI for. In a court filing , OpenAI accused an ex-employee of giving sensitive data about an unreleased product to Apple. The unnamed employee joined OpenAI from Apple and then returned after six months. OpenAI claims the person sent over a hundred highly confidential files to personal accounts, including manufacturing data and detailed images of at least one unreleased product. The former employee allegedly made a presentation on OpenAI product plans for Apple's senior leadership months ago, and OpenAI is worried Apple could use that information to further its work on AI devices. OpenAI is very concerned that its trade secret and confidential information is now circulating inside Apple, where Apple engineers can shape Apple's upcoming products based on OpenAI's confidential and innovative work. OpenAI has raised these issues directly with Apple, but to date, Apple has not provided OpenAI with the requested assurances that Apple is not in possession of, and has not used, OpenAI's trade secret and confidential information. OpenAI asked the court for permission to investigate and pursue counterclaims if necessary. Apple told Reuters it has found no evidence to support OpenAI's claims and it has policies in place to ensure new employees do not use confidential information from previous employers. Apple and OpenAI have been involved in a tense legal battle since Apple sued OpenAI in July . Apple says OpenAI employees Chang Liu and Tang Tan stole trade secrets from Apple to develop new AI hardware. OpenAI called the lawsuit careless, aggressive and oddly personal, stating that it does not have, nor want, any of their trade secrets because it is much more interested in building innovative products and technologies that push the frontier. Yesterday, the court partially granted Apple's request for expedited discovery. OpenAI has up to two weeks to hand over forensic evidence as well as materials used when interviewing former Apple employees. Liu, Tan, and Alyssa Peng, Liu's former Apple colleague, will need to sit for depositions after Apple gets the requested information. Judge Edward Davila, who is overseeing the case, said during a hearing today that he is highly likely to grant a preliminary injunction prohibiting OpenAI from using Apple's allegedly stolen trade secrets. Bloomberg says an injunction would mark a potential setback for OpenAI's hardware development efforts.
