Google's TV Project is Dubbed as Dragonpoint

The Google TV Project that involves Intel, Sony and Logitech is due to arrive next month and will have custom Android operating system dubbed as Dragonpoint. BusinessInsider reported that Sony is aiming to announce home-entertainment devices equipped with Intel chips and loaded with Google software according to two people familiar with the matter. Co-incidentally, Google I/O conference is also set for next month.

Last month, Google had announced a tie-up with Sony, Intel and Logitech for bringing Android interface to TV screen. Under this project, the participating companies will enable easy browsing of web applications on the TV screen, through an interactive software interface. Set-top boxes build by Sony will have Intel Atom chips inside. Logitech is expected to build a keyboard packing remote control.

Google would be developing custom interactive interface dubbed Dragonpoint based on Android and it would be like an operating system within itself. Besides aiming at the home-entertainment segment, Sony is also masquerading to bring 3D gaming and 3D movies experience to the living with 3D BRAVIA televisions.
