MUMBAI: MyBox Technologies, a Hero Electronix venture, specializing in the research and development and manufacturing of set-top boxes, has announced that it is now an Alexa Voice Service (AVS) solution provider and has collaborated with Amazon.

The company enables cable and DTH operators to bring Alexa to compatible, pre-existing set-top boxes. Paired with MyBox’s hub and microphone-equipped remote control, customers will have access to Alexa and the ability to control smart home devices, play music, shop for household goods, and more – hands-free.

Collaborating with Amazon, MyBox’s world-class R&D team has created a set-top box with rich voice functionality. With Alexa now part of the TV environment, MyBox is committed to bringing new voice-forward video experiences to TV viewers.”
