What is Google TV?

Google TV is a new experience that combines traditional TV, the web, and apps together with search and discovery functionality. It is a software platform that is pre-installed on a TV or buddy box that connects to a TV.

Google TV is driving innovation with an open platform strategy that integrates seamlessly with existing cable, satellite, terrestrial, or IPTV subscriptions to enhance the television-viewing experience. Google TV is built on Android and Chrome platforms that provide a scalable way to bring your apps to TV.
