Nano Banana Coming to Google TV: Everything Announced at CES 2026

A New Era for Living Room AI

At CES 2026, Google made a groundbreaking announcement: Nano Banana, their wildly popular AI image generation model, is coming to Google TV. This integration marks a significant step in bringing powerful AI tools directly into consumers' living rooms.

What This Means for Users

Starting in Q2 2026, Google TV users will be able to:

  • Generate original images using voice commands or the remote
  • Edit personal photos through conversational AI
  • Create custom artwork for digital picture frames
  • Reimagine family photos with different artistic styles

The integration leverages the same technology that made Nano Banana a viral sensation in 2025, when the photorealistic "3D figurine" trend took social media by storm.

Technical Implementation

Google is using their Gemini framework to power the integration, with Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) handling the heavy lifting. Video generation through Veo will also be available for more complex creative projects.

Why This Matters

This move signals Google's commitment to making AI accessible beyond mobile phones and computers. By bringing image generation to the TV screen, they're targeting a broader audience who may not be comfortable with traditional AI interfaces.

When Can You Try It?

The feature will roll out gradually starting in March 2026, beginning with newer Google TV devices before expanding to older models through software updates.
