An infographic explaining some of Apple's acquisitions in recent years ...
A glimpse of some of Apple's past acquisitions
Apple's acquisitions are many and we may need a full and detailed article, but let us now suffice to shed light on some of the acquisitions that have made a clear change to Apple and its various products. Perhaps the first of these acquisitions in terms of importance is its acquisition of AuthenTec, a company specializing in protection and security technologies associated with biometrics for users ( Biometrics), which was done in 2012 for an amount of $ 356 million in 2012
• Apple's acquisition of AuthenTec and SIRI
As soon as Apple completed this acquisition, we saw the iPhone 5s in the following year with fingerprint technology support! But two years ago, Apple had a very important acquisition as well, as it acquired SIRI, which was developing voice assistant software for an undisclosed amount, but it is said that it was $ 250 million, and this acquisition developed later to become Siri's personal assistant after the company’s owners were aiming to launch Siri as a mobile application. Android and Blackberry! And this was all in the year 2010, and later we saw Siri in its first version on the iPhone 4s.
Acquisition of LinX and Texture
One of Apple's other acquisitions was LinX Computational Imaging in the amount of approximately $ 20 million, which is a company with many innovations in cameras and imaging technologies and contributed significantly as this acquisition was in 2015! Later, in another acquisition, Apple acquired a company called Texture, which was providing users of its services with access to more than 200 exclusive magazines, and shortly after this acquisition, we began to see the Apple News service, which explains how these acquisitions contribute to providing new technologies and services, which is in our favor. As end users.
Apple is on the way to acquiring iKinema
If history is repeating itself, then we are about to see revolutionary changes to Memoji and Animoji features on the next version of iOS as well as 2020 phones, as Apple has officially confirmed that it has acquired iKinema in an unknown value deal, and this company has an excellent simulation system where it can transform humans To fictional characters only through a video of them, which may also be exploited by Apple, in addition to using the company's techniques in developing mimoji and anime.
IKinema describes itself as helping content creators to provide content suitable for games and modern technologies that are completely dependent on 2015D graphics, so it has a major role in VR technologies, and we cannot deny the connection of a point like this with Apple's intention to launch a virtual reality glasses. In the year XNUMX, Apple acquired a company called FaceShift, which has technologies for converting a face image into a XNUMXD drawing. As you can expect, after its acquisition of this company, we saw Memoji and Animoji technologies!
A glimpse of what iKinema has to offer.
What do we know about iKinema right now? How might it benefit Apple?
What we know about the company is not much, but this is not as important as what Apple may benefit from this company, as its technologies allow the conversion of ordinary video into a fully "cartoon" video, and for this we can expect that Apple will use its technologies completely to improve the performance of Animoji and Memoji technologies in a way. General, in its plans to develop any devices related to virtual reality.

More importantly, Apple may somehow link these new technologies to the Apple TV + service or use them to develop more realistic games on the Apple Arcade platform. We expect that Apple will fully exploit the technologies of this company, which tells us many expected changes to iOS 14.
Speaking of acquisitions, did you know that the biggest acquisition in Apple's history was its acquisition of Beats Audio in 2014? Whereas, Apple paid $ 3 billion in this acquisition, and later, as you can expect, we saw the launch of Apple Music, Beats products, and an AirPod.

Can't you acquire (Microsoft) company with its trademark and designs?
Or be smarter than this, and seek to acquire one of the distinctive commercial connotations that fit human rights justice, instead of the apple slogan, which only represents young children who have not yet comprehended the meaning of life and human justice.
Without Bill Gates, Apple would likely not exist today. Go back to August 1997, 1997 ... In 150, Microsoft once saved Apple and promised a future investment of $ XNUMX million.
But Microsoft was not present when Apple made its Macintosh device, Pilates was a friend of Steve and stole the idea of the Mac system and created a special system in it, which is Windows, and gave it to companies to put it on their computers for free, such as Android, I mean, and it was a strong blow to Apple because the Mac was distinguished by its system. Treachery and she struck Apple and she wanted to fix the situation
* Water kills * .. !!!!!!!!
A person has a nerve called the vagus nerve ..!
This nerve is connected to the stomach and the heart together
It is called the vagus nerve !!
If a violent alert came to this nerve ... such as: cold water that is thrown into the jaw at one time. It is severe alerts ..
This nerve may have stimulated the heart and stopped it from functioning
There are many cases of sudden death due to:
Very intense stimulation of this vagus nerve ..
The scholars called it (the nervous prohibition) that leads to:
The heart stops, and death may happen suddenly.
And the Prophet, may God bless him and his family, forbade pouring water.
Which: He drank it all at once, and he commanded it to be consumed in three.
And this is a directive from God Almighty.
Glory be to Him, I know what is of benefit to us ...
Something else:
That a person is when he is ... in a very hot state ...
At a very high voltage condition..the same as a machine..if you poured water on metal machinery while it was in a state of high voltage and heat ... it would break apart and split ... how is a person
So drink the water sitting ... and drink it on three.
*
It has also been scientifically proven that the liver is responsible for the notification of thirst. ”When you complete drinking at once, the water suddenly falls into the liver, and hepatic cirrhosis occurs!
But if it is done on (3) three times ... the first works to warn the liver and notify it that the water is coming, so it prepares by getting wet and soft, so it does not cause erosion in it .. it is the Sunnah of Muhammadiyah scientific fact.
Glory be to God, how great is the blessing of Islam
How great is the application of the Sunnah of my beloved Messenger of God
Do not deprive others of the information
Do not let the information stop at you, so participate in spreading it
To drink while you are sitting: All harmful deposits are removed from your body, including those that cause kidney stones.
As for drinking three times: Whenever you drink and stop breathing, the body takes oxygen and gives insulin to the body and insulin protects against diabetes.
Send it alive
For the year of the Messenger of God, peace be upon him
Thank you for me:
A piece of information from our beloved Muhammad, may blessings and peace be upon him, 1400 years ago .. After all these years, scientists finally discovered it ..
For example, when you are asleep and someone wakes you at once, your condition will be frightening. But if he wakes you up gently the first, second, and third time, you will wake up in the best condition.
Then drink water three times intermittently, it will alert the digestive system and the liver that something liquid is coming.
