New
TVs driven by software and streaming, not pixels
by
Heather Kelly
Televisions are getting wider and thinner, their
edges shrinking to make room for displays that pack in more and more pixels.
It's the smaller, tablet-inspired features that could end up being more
enticing to average consumers. These include improved software interfaces,
Internet connectivity and social integration, tablet and smart phone pairing,
apps and more options for content sources other than cable. We spend so
much time swiping around intuitive smart phone interfaces that navigating
through TV menus feels like a harsh trip back in time. TV makers are
adding new ways to navigate between these, including gestures and voice control.
