Digital TV is at the center of today’s connected home. Previously, consumers had to choose their platform of choice for their entertainment. They had DVD players to play movies, gaming consoles for games, set-top boxes for premium content, and a PC for accessing the internet, just to name a few.
But the line between these various platforms is blurring. Today your TV and set-top box can surf the web, your set-top box can enable- 3D -games, and your Blu-Ray player can access the Internet. As a result consumers have more choice than ever. At the center of this transformation sits Digital TV. Regardless of the chosen access platform, consumers still need a high quality, immersive display for compelling content and entertainment. This is where Trident shines.
