Amazon\u2019s new Fire TV Blaster works with Echo to control your TV, soundbar, cable box and more<\/strong> <\/a>— from techcrunch.com by Sarah Perez<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

Amazon already offers Alexa voice control to TV owners through its Fire TV devices, by way of a voice remote or by pairing an Echo device with a Fire TV, for hands-free voice commands. Now, it\u2019s introducing a new device,\u00a0the Fire TV Blaster<\/a>, which extends that same hands-free voice control to your TV itself and other TV devices \u2014 like your soundbar, cable box, or A\/V Receiver.<\/p>\n

That means you\u2019ll be able to say things like \u201cAlexa, turn off the TV,\u201d or \u201cAlexa, switch to HDMI 1 on TV.\u201d You can also control the volume and the playback.<\/p>\n

And if you have other TV devices, you can control them hands-free as well, by saying things like \u201cAlexa, turn up the soundbar volume,\u201d or \u201cAlexa tune to ESPN on cable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nHow might such Natural Language Processing (NLP) \/ voice recognition technologies impact future learning experiences and learning spaces? Will we enjoy more hands-free navigation around some cloud-based learning-related content? Will faculty members be able to use their voice to do the things that a Crestron Media Controller does today? <\/span><\/p>\n

Parenthetically…when will we be able to speak to our routers (to shut off the kids’ internet connections\/devices for example) and\/or speak to our thermostats (to set the temperature(s) quickly for the remainder of the day)?<\/span><\/p>\n
