We already knew Google TV, the company system to reach televisions and decoders of our homes.

Now, Google announced at its Google I / O 2014 the evolution of the system and now called Android TV.

Unlike Google TV, Android TV would be complemented based on pure Android code L, the new version of the mobile operating system of the company. This would allow developers to easily modify their applications to work directly on this platform, like Android-L (cell phone and tablet) and Android Wear, and not having the need of having to create an entirely new application for this new TV platform.

In fact, manufacturers are the ones who decide how to offer it in the beginning, is control video game control specially designed for Android TV or regular monitoring of television and users can can choose to use their phones or tablets at any time.

Overall, Android TV interface is very graphical and easy. It works very smoothly and shows you on the home Lcd content recommendations can like, given your history seen or used content, like video games and apps.

Each application has a similar structure where you find a hidden phenomenon on the left side and the other on the right information. The start menu displayed when you open the application and then closes when you enter the information tine each of those categories or play any kind of content.

It has been said that unlike Android mobile phones, Google would control interface and thus offer TV Android experience to users. Thus, manufacturers may not make major changes to the design of Android TV, but if you can add your own content. From now on, the SDK is enabled for developers begin to experience the new Google TV platform and modify or create their applications to be compatible with Android TV.
