Epson's projectors are getting smarter in 2026. In a continuing collaboration between the brands, Epson announced at CES 2026 that Google TV with Gemini is coming to select new Lifestudio projectors. The AI-powered system promises a seamless streaming experience, no auxiliary streaming devices required.

Lifestudio projectors from Epson utilize MediaTek's system on chip (SoC) smart projector platform already, which brings streaming platforms directly to the device. Now the system will have Google TV with Gemini integrated into MediaTek's SoC. The addition of Google TV and Gemini creates an efficient viewing experience for users, particularly those who hate bouncing between a dozen different streaming services.

Gemini, now fully integrated in Google TV, provides a personal AI assistant, helping you find your next watch and providing personalized suggestions across your apps based on what you've already watched. Google TV also aims to put all the content available to you in one place, no more jumping between apps trying to find your next watch. Plus, all of your shows and movies are in one place. A single watchlist collects everything you want to watch across streamers, and when you're away from home, you can even add and edit the list from your phone.

However, the Google TV with Gemini integration into Epson's projectors goes beyond entertainment. It also serves as a smart home headquarters, controlling compatible lights, doorbells, thermostats, and more.

The Google TV with Gemini integration is coming to the Lifestudio Grand projector in 2026. More Epson projector models compatible with Google TV will be announced later in the year.
