Deep dives
Transition from Software to Hardware at Google
Google's rationale for entering the hardware space was to enhance its streaming services and bring innovative Google experiences into homes. The initial focus was on integrating Android into televisions, given that TVs are essentially large screens capable of displaying internet content. This transition was significant for Google, a company traditionally known as a software provider, signaling a shift towards product diversification through hardware solutions like the Google Chromecast. The goal was always to balance hardware with software to create a seamless integration for users, expanding access to entertainment and information.
