In an interview about Apple’s work and progress in the health field, Kevin Lynch, the company’s vice president of technology, hinted that Apple may one day use AirPods sensor fusion to provide users with more health data. At present, both iPhone and Apple Watch use a large number of sensors to independently provide users with health data and information.
In addition, Apple also uses sensor fusion to combine sensor data on the Apple Watch and iPhone to provide users with more comprehensive health information. In an interview with TechCrunch, Lynch hinted that Apple may add AirPods to the process of sensor fusion to provide Apple users with more health data.
This is another advantage of the close integration of Apple’s software and hardware, and as Apple’s device ecosystem and the sensors they carry continue to grow, this advantage will increase exponentially. AirPods also contain their own sensors and collect different data, which can supplement the health monitoring capabilities of the iPhone and Apple Watch.

Kevin Lynch’s hint is consistent with Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo’s report, who said that Apple does plan to introduce health tracking for AirPods. Recently, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported that the second-generation AirPods Pro, which will be released next year, will include updated motion sensors, with a focus on fitness tracking.
In the rest of the interview, Lynch also discussed the new health features of iOS 15, such as health tracking and walking robustness. The executive who led the development of the Apple Watch also discussed how Apple Watch has evolved into an intelligent guardian of user health.
