Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second
rekabis@lemmy.ca 1 month agoPlenty of companies make display TVs that only display commercial content. You see them all the time displaying menus in fast food restaurants.
These can also have all smart tech turned off because some companies also use them as digital whiteboards to display proprietary or confidential information.

Those typically come at commercial pricing, which is insane.

I would hardly consider that pricing insane. Consumer TVs are massively subsidized by the smart tech built into them, in some cases by up to 60%. Considering the more robust construction (for commercial use) and lack of subsidization, I would consider those prices to be spot-on and rather reasonable.

Those commercial displays are nothing but heavily stripped down TVs with anything unnecessary to being a advertising display removed. and maybe a special a tiny, grossly overpriced and heavily cut down computer built into it to run the slideshows/menus/whatever.
