Voice commands for Android TV on Shield and Mi Box

by WhereIsFiber

Will the Nvidia Shield TV and Mi Box bring up on my televison screen the L.A. Times web site if I press the remote control's microphone button and say "Visit Los Angeles Times web site" or "Go to Yahoo-dot-com?"

The Amazon Fire TV 2 box will show the weather and bring up telephone numbers if you speak into the remote control and say "Telephone number for Dry Cleaners in zip code 65201," BUT the Fire TV will not visit web sites or do lots of other things. It doesn't work like speaking into your Android phone and saying "Visit Los Angeles Times" or "How tall is the tallest person on the planet?"

Android TV boxes do not come with web browsers

You can push Chrome to an Android TV box. I've done it on my Shield and Mi Box.

I've not tried what you want to do, but you can open Chrome using voice recognition (say "open Chrome"), and then I believe you can control Chrome with voice. You can also control it with a Bluetooth keyboard. You should be able to do what you want, but it might take a little bit of setup.
