Michal Marek Wahi a nā hōʻike nūpepa Ka Wall Street Pai koina ma hope o ka nele o Apple Watch, he pilikia me ka hana ʻana o ka ʻāpana Taptic Engine. Ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hana nui ma Pepeluali o kēia makahiki, e like me ka WSJ, ua ʻike ʻia kekahi mau Taptic Engines i hana ʻia ma nā hale hana o AAC Technologies Holdings e hōʻike i ka hilinaʻi haʻahaʻa. I ka pōkole, ua haki pinepine ka mea i hoʻohana ʻia i ka wati i ka wā hoʻāʻo.
ʻO ka mea hoʻolako ʻelua o Taptic Engine ʻo ka hui Iapana ʻo Nidec Corp. a ʻaʻohe ona pilikia. No laila ʻaneʻane hoʻoneʻe wale ʻia nā hana a pau i Iapana. Eia nō naʻe, e lōʻihi ka lōʻihi no Nidec e hoʻonui i ka nui o kāna hana.
Eia naʻe, ʻike ʻia kekahi mau wati me kahi Taptic Engine hewa i nā mea kūʻai aku. ʻO ka ʻike me ka pā hoʻolaha haʻihaʻi hōʻike ʻia a me ka mea kākau moʻolelo kaulana ʻo John Gruber, nona ka hiʻohiʻona hoʻāʻo o ka wati āna i huki ai i ka manaʻo me ka nāwaliwali loa i ka wā mua, ʻaʻole loa i ka lā aʻe. I ka pane ʻana, hāʻawi ʻo Apple iā ia me kahi wati hou i ka lā aʻe.
ʻO kekahi o ka poʻe heluhelu o kāna blog i loaʻa ka ʻike like, nāna i hoʻololi i kāna Apple Watch Sport i kahi mea hou ma ka Apple Store. Akā he mau hihia kaʻawale paha kēia a ʻaʻole hoʻolālā ʻo Apple i kekahi hana maʻamau. ʻO ka WSJ pū kekahi, no kēlā mea i hōʻike ʻia ma hope i kāna hōʻike ʻana ʻaʻole i hiki i nā ʻāpana hemahema i nā mea kūʻai aku. Inā pēlā, me he mea lā he mea liʻiliʻi loa ia.
ʻO ka Taptic Engine kahi mea i hoʻomohala ʻia e Apple i hiki i ka Apple Watch ke hoʻomaopopo iā ʻoe i nā hoʻolaha e hiki mai ana ma ke ʻano ʻoluʻolu a me ka noʻonoʻo. He kaʻa kēia, i loko kahi e hoʻoneʻe ʻia ai kahi pendulum liʻiliʻi kūikawā, e hana ana i ka manaʻo me he mea lā e paʻi mālie ana kekahi i kou lima. He kuleana hoʻi ka Taptic Engine inā hoʻouna ʻoe i kou puʻuwai ponoʻī i kekahi mea hoʻohana Apple Watch.
Wahi a ka WSJ, ua haʻi aku ʻo Apple i kekahi o kāna mau mea hoʻolako e hoʻolōʻihi i ka hana a hiki i Iune. ʻAʻole i wehewehe nā luna ʻoihana. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ua hopohopo nā mea hoʻolako, no ka mea, ua ʻōlelo ka hale lole o Apple a hiki i kēlā manawa ʻaʻole maikaʻi nā hoʻopuka Apple Watch.
Ke pilikia nui nei ka Apple Watch a ʻaʻole hiki ke loaʻa. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke kūʻai i ka wati i loko o nā hale kūʻai ʻo Apple brick-and-mortar, a ua hoʻihoʻi ʻia nā manawa hoʻouna no nā kauoha pūnaewele i Iune ma hope koke o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā kauoha. ʻO Tim Cook ma ka ʻaha kūkā ma loko hoolaha ana i na hopena hapaha hōʻike i kēlā manaʻo ka hui e hoʻonui i ke kūʻai aku o nā wati i nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe ma ka hopena o Iune.
