Add to Flipboard Magazine.

This is an update in which we rounded up all recent Apple hires pertinent to the development of the upcoming "iWatch". In this post we will talk about several new hires and experts, including a pair of key Nike+ FuelBand hardware engineers, and the new hires are labeled with italics.

Apple also has been developing a sensor-laden, fitness and medical, focused wearable computer as indicated by several notable recent hires and information we have received from sources. The devices will have a target on both fashion and exercise as Apple has been testing the device with key professional athletes. We are expecting the product to be announced in October of this year and ship by the holiday season. As the  launch of the “iWatch” approaches, we have compiled an up-to-date list of all known and pertinent recent Apple hires to provide a clearer picture of what Apple’s future wearable technologies could offer to consumers. We will be looking forward.
