TiVo launches voice-powered TiVo Vox set-tops

TiVo has introduced two new set-top boxes – the TiVo Bolt Vox and TiVo Mini Vox – that include TiVo’s first voice control remote control.

Viewers can use the TiVo Vox Remote to search for programs across live TV, DVR, video-on demand and online streaming services.

TiVo said the Bolt Vox provides its “most personalised and unified entertainment experience ever”, combining the features of TiVo’s DVR with online streaming services, controlled by a single voice-powered remote control.

The new TiVo Mini Vox allows viewers to expand this experience to other rooms in the house with up to 4K Ultra HD picture quality, faster performance, and no additional service fees.

“Consumers today have access to more TV content than ever before, but finding it requires multiple devices, remotes and confusing user experiences,” said Ted Malone, vice president of consumer products and services, TiVo.

“The new TiVo Bolt Vox lets consumers easily find the shows they want to watch without having to know whether the program is on live TV, DVR, video-on-demand or streaming from an online service – all by simply speaking into their remote.”
