Apple sure has a lot of patents about adding a camera to the Apple Watch
While gadget patents don’t guarantee anything, they can offer a glimpse into areas a company is exploring. Apple was granted a patent for an Apple Watch strap release mechanism that could potentially be used with a built-in camera. This is the third camera-related Apple Watch patent we’ve seen in recent years. The patent application was originally filed in 2019, so Apple engineers have clearly had wearable cameras on the brain for some time.
