Google details its plans for the Android TV OS until 2021

From the IBC 2019 (International Broadcasting Convention) we have new information about the future plans that Google has for its Android TV system until 2021 with the Android TV version 12. Also in those plans we have a new Hero device that is lens oriented and cameras, support for Stadia since Android TV 11 and promises of less fragmentation.

Android TV Google Play Store design n01

In this convention, aimed to the streaming companies across the globe, Google focuses on making its systems more attractive so that these large companies choose it as a platform and also integrate advertisements into their streamings. The inclusion of Stadia is also a key point because Google is very interested in being in this sector with the rise of Gaming on demand. By 2021 the goal of 8,000 native apps is marked in the new Google Play Store on Android TV that will be redesigned as seen in the image.
