The technology community expects the debut of the new version of Android, the operating system most often used in mobile phones worldwide.

Android Wear, an operating system designed for computer wearable garments, and that captured much of the attention during the meeting of developers of the year past, has not been a great success.
Many of the sessions of the two-day conference emphasize Android extend the domain of home, with Android TV, as well as the wearable computer and . virtual reality
“While last year’s conference focused on different versions of Android, this year will see Google position more firmly into three areas: virtual reality , clothing technology and called Internet of things, “said Gabriel Sama , director of web technology CNET in Spanish.
Sama stressed that while Android already has entered the automobile, television and the clothing technology , the giant of Mountain View has not yet made a proposal on the smart home, “one that can be aligned with your purchase signature smart home products Nest”.
Director CNET in Spanish says it has made “has been rumored “a possible operating system for the Internet of things called Shine.
The success of Google, recalls the daily The Wall Street Journal in an article published Wednesday (27 May) will depend on how many developers use their new platforms.
