元器件交易网讯  4月30日消息，据《中国时报》援引供应链消息称，苹果可穿戴设备iWatch已经投入生产，今年下半年发布。

　　报道称，苹果使用特殊的微型传感器和处理器设计以保持iWatch的薄小尺寸。

　　新报道打破了去年2月份纽约时报报道的苹果正致力于弧形玻璃的可穿戴设备。之后，9to5Mac和纽约时报都说苹果专注于新设备的健身跟踪应用。

　　9to5Mac上个月报道，新一代iPhone运营iOS 8系统，包括一个专为健身跟踪设计的Healthbook应用程序。很可能Healthbook将与iWatch同步。

　　Apple's wearable computer, the so-called iWatch, has entered production for a late-2014 release, according to China Times, which cites supply chain sources.

　　The report says Apple is using special miniaturized sensors and processors designed to keep the iWatch slim and small. China Times says Apple plans to release the watch in the second half of 2014.

　　News on an iWatch first broke in February of last year when The New York Times reported that Apple was working on a wearable device made out of curved glass. Since then, reports from 9to5Mac and The New York Times have said Apple is focusing a lot on fitness tracking for the new device.

　　9to5Mac also reported last month that the next version of the iPhone operating system, iOS 8, will include an app called Healthbook that's designed for fitness tracking. It's likely Healthbook will sync with the iWatch.
