Microsoft Wanted To Build Accessories For Apple Leaked Ipad Touch Cover Suggests Yes

Sure, the company develops periphery hardware like mouse and keyboard that work across OEM products.

Researchers Develop Algorithm To Improve Underwater Images

Underwater environments present various challenges for image processing. Water is a constantly moving property that reduces visibility and reduces contrast.
