Google is teaming up with TV manufacturer Vizio to make casting capability from a mobile device available on Vizio TVs without the need to open up an app on the device, according to a report by Variety.
According to the paper, Vizio is to launch a range of TVs with casting capabilities.
Google has already added casting support to Android-based TVs, with a range of models from the likes of Sony and others unveiled at CES. However the Vizio models will enable casting without the use of any on-screen apps, according to Variety.
Google merged the management of its popular Chromecast streaming media dongle with Android TV last autumn under Mario Querioz.
