Hillcrest Laboratories has recently launched a new browser made specifically for large screens like the HDTV.
The new browser is called Kylo, and looks similar to Mozilla Firefox. Like any browser, it is designed to help internet users access their favorite websites. However, it is different since it automatically adjusts the page to fit the screen, enlarging the font of the text and the buttons while moving the address bar and toolbar to the bottom for more space.
It also allows users to zoom on specific content and comes with a large, online keyboard for those who don’t have an external one or would rather not use one.
The main goal of Kylo is to allow those who use their HDTV screens as computer monitors to surf the internet comfortably, without squinting, letting them enjoy the surfing experience just as much or even more than they would on a smaller screen. Hillcrest has released a new device, as well, called the Loop, a remote control for in-air pointing that will give users even more convenience.
The best thing about Kylo is that it is free to download, working on both Windows and Mac operating systems.
Hillcrest Labs is based in Rockville, Maryland and has been in business since 1991.
