During yesterday’s keynote at the E3 gaming expo, Microsoft unveiled its new multiscreen entertainment platform called SmartGlass.
“The platform allows users to play video and other media from their mobile devices on their big-screen television, thanks to the Xbox 360,” reports CNET.
Users can send content from one device to another. “To add more value, tablets and smartphones will act as a companion, allowing users to see more information about the program being watched on their Xbox, creating a ‘multiscreen’ experience,” explains the post.
Launching this fall as a competitor to Apple’s AirPlay, SmartGlass will work on Windows, Windows Phone and the Xbox 360 and will support Android and iOS.
The post includes a 4-minute video from E3 in Los Angeles.
