Many Smart TVs don’t really talk to other devices as well as we’d like; integration tends to be basic, proprietary or both. LG may soon have a more elegant solution, as it’s promising AllJoyn support in its TV line.
LG Electronics (LG) will be the first company to incorporate the AllJoyn open source software framework into its Smart TV platform, giving users a new level of interoperability between devices. AllJoyn, developed by Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc., is designed to create a common language that seamlessly connects the Internet of Things, regardless of brand or operating system (OS). This new multi-device environment opens up a raft of possibilities for LG Smart TV owners.
