Project Neo by Lumio: Your Phone is Now Your TV Remote!
Ever watched a Reel on Instagram and had no idea what movie it's from? Or heard about a great watch from a friend but forgot the name by the time you sat down in front of the TV? Lumio has a genuinely clever fix for this with Project Neo, a new content-discovery feature built into the Lumio TLDR app.
In this video, we take Project Neo for a full hands-on test on a Lumio Google TV, and the results are honestly impressive.
How It Works
Neo connects your phone to your TV through apps you're already using every day — WhatsApp and Instagram. No new app to learn, no typing on the TV remote. Once your TV is paired, you simply message Neo in plain Hindi, English, or Hinglish (type it, say it, or share it) and it finds the content and plays it directly on the big screen.
What We Tested
Direct search: Asked for a specific movie by name it pulled it up on the TV within seconds.
Mood-based search: Requested "comedy movies" and got a full list, mirrored on both phone and TV simultaneously.
Reel-to-TV magic: This is the standout feature. Share an Instagram Reel or clip to Neo, and it identifies the exact movie or show from the clip and plays it straight on your TV — no manual searching required.
Key Features Covered:
Voice search in Hindi/Hinglish/English
Works across WhatsApp and Instagram
Setup takes under 30 seconds via QR code pairing
Currently available on Lumio Vision TVs and Lumio Arc Projectors (public beta)
Built by Circuit House Technologies, Bengaluru
If you're someone who's constantly discovering content on social media but forgetting it by TV time, this feature genuinely solves a real problem and it's one of the more thoughtful AI integrations we've seen on a Smart TV in India recently.
