Microsoft and Asus are reportedly working together to bring Kinect-enabled PC devices to market, separate from the already announced PC-specific Kinect device. The new laptops being worked on will automatically have Kinect technology built in.
As reported in The Daily, a Microsoft-backed PC Kinect with Windows 8 has already been prototyped, and will be offered by Asus in the near future. This will apparently supplement the stand-alone unit that was showcased at CES earlier this year.
The report states that a Microsoft employee close to the project has confirmed the deal with Asus, saying that Microsoft will more than likely make their own Kinect-based laptops in-house.
