Att Cell Phone Business Plans A series of new photos have surfaced showing a camera-enabled iPod nano casing. The photos clearly show the device retaining its clip-on design with a metal housing for a camera assembly protruding from the back of the main case and sitting flush with a hole in the device’s clip.

The design would allow Apple to squeeze a camera into the current diminutive form factor of the iPod nano by moving much of the lens and sensor hardware outside of the main casing but still within the overall device envelope by utilizing a small portion of the gap between the device and the clip.

Given that this design for a camera-equipped iPod nano has been floating around for some time and did not make an appearance during last October’s update, it is unclear whether the design is still in the works for Apple or if it has been scrapped for some reason. The company had previously introduced a low-resolution video-only camera on the previous iPod nano form factor, but removed the feature when it redesigned the device with a smaller, iPod shuffle-like form factor in 2010.

An Apple patent application filed in May 2010 on speaker design that appeared to show a hole in the iPod nano’s clip in the same location as the rumoured camera hole and a patent application filed in late 2009 also suggests that Apple has an interest in equipping the current iPod nano design with a camera, offering it as one example of an environmental sensor that could be used to allow the device to display screen savers and other content that relate to the device’s environment such as the current weather or other factors.
