Intel is introducing internet TV and getting inside this market. Another company has been added in this field, a name which is already is very popular in the world and it is already on many computers web surfing.

It will also has a camera which can be turn off because many users are privacy conscious, the functions of this is camera are: it can be used for video chatting and observing the habits of TV watchers to serve them with their favorite programs when they will come in the camera range.

But, this camera function can be the controversial element of this package.

This software will be supported and compatible with Tablets, smartphones and with the new HEVC (H.265) video codec rather than the most common codec H.264.

Intel TV offering is not on 'a la carte' rule which means that the offer price in not the separate price of each item whereas the price is 'right' with bundles. The bundles with content which the user and consumer needs and wants.

User Interface Importance to Users:


Like Apple, Intel also believes that price will not be the barrier to the TV watchers buying its product if it can produce a cool device. Intel improved its user experience and after improved it is creating better user experience around the video is one of the key value of this.

Although, user interfaces are not on high priority for TV watchers when a new product comes.

However, user interface is very important, the fact is price, brand and selection of content are much more important in the user's decision when they are going to watch the video.

Intel is not the only vendor trying to bring the innovation to TV in coming years this is just the beginning of the race and the start gun has just fired.
