Google, whose Android software reigns as the world's dominant smartphone operating system, will step up efforts to make inroads into cars, televisions and other devices at its annual developer conference this week. Follow the updates of the Google I/O 2014 keynote address on our live blog.
The two-day Google I/O conference is expected to draw more than 6,000 developers from around the world. The keynote address starts at 9:30 PM IST.
Google is expected to provide an update on its plans to integrate Android into automobiles, making it easier for drivers and passengers to access navigation and entertainment features available on their smartphones.
The company could also unveil a new service that tracks a user's health and personal fitness information, similar to recently introduced services from Apple and Samsung.
Google may also showcase a version of Android designed for televisions. A TV version of Android would come four years after Google's first effort to enter the living room, Google TV, failed to catch on with consumers.
