Smart TV, definition, Technology, Review, Google Smart TV

So what exactly is “Smart TV”? and What is the definition of smart TV? Simply put it is a merger between two of the most important technological advances the past couple of centuries– good old TV and the internet.
The strongest Smart TV technology offering we’ve seen so far comes from global search giant Google, partnered with Intel, Sony and Logitech with their Google TV. The Google smart TV setup allows viewers to watch either traditional television broadcasts or enjoy a variety of shows streamed from the internet, access websites from their TV, and even run applications on it.
So what is powering Smart TV? Well hardware wise the leaders in the field at this stage is Intel with its Intel Atom CE4100 processor. This is Intel’s first system-on-a-chip aimed at Smart TV’s based on the Atom architecture. The chip allows Smart TV top boxes to be able to handle dual-stream 1080p video support and other processing duties. But Google TV is facing its share of problems though, with Viacom (representing MTV, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and VH1) recently opting out of an agreement with the service.
