Waiting for Superior Smart TV User Interface Design
According to the latest market study by Informa Telecoms & Media, 31 percent of households worldwide will own at least one Smart TV in five years time, with household penetration much higher in North America (63 percent) and Western Europe (64 percent).
They now forecast that over 220 million smart TV sets will be sold worldwide in 2017, that’s up from the 54 million that have been sold in 2012.
However, while smart TV connection rates are rising, they will continue to lag the connection rates of video game consoles and media streaming devices.
