As part of its continued quest to be more open and accessible, Microsoft has confirmed some of what it's working on for the next version of Internet Explorer.
Among the features in development are the Media Capture API, that lets Web content manipulate audio and video streams from microphones and webcams, the HTTP/2 protocol, currently being developed by IETF, and Web Audio, an API that lets JavaScript process and synthesize audio. The company also plans to implement a JavaScript feature called Promises that should streamline development of asynchronous scripts.

Microsoft Previews Internet Explorer 12 Features

Microsoft is already working on the next full version of Internet Explorer, which might arrive either in the second Windows 8.1 Update due this year or in Windows 9 (which might be launched in early 2015), so the company decided to offer a quick glimpse at some of the features to be part of the product.

While Redmond hasn't provided too many details about these enhancements, it did mention that they're now in development, so they're very likely to make it to the market when the next version of the browser comes out.
