Chromecast: Beyond Streaming Media


The Chromecast is a small device that allows users to “cast” their media to a TV. It allows for creating sender applications using either the Chrome/iOS/Android SDK that can stream video or display your photos, and receiver applications, which are just HTML5, Javascript and CSS web apps.

While this is cool, this idea can be taken a step further. Who says we have to just use this as a “display-only” technology?

In this experiment, we will see how we can make our content interactive – using this new technology as an HTML5 Game Console.
