SAN FRANCISCO: Social-media giant Facebook is reportedly working on a streaming device, like Amazons Fire Stick which would plug into a TV to offer access to online content.

The new streaming hardware will be part of the company’s Portal family of devices, featuring a camera, combining video chatting with TV viewing and Augmented Reality (AR), variety.com reported on Friday.

The company has recently approached Netflix, Disney, and HBO about adding their content to its hardware.

In addition, Facebook is set to launch an updated version of its video chat device ‘Portal’ later this year.
