Televisions, phones or computers… All of these have one thing in common. The screens of all of them are much larger than the models that came out 8-10 years ago. There are those who get the idea that this is a consumer need. And watching a movie on a huge TV doesn’t sound interesting to all of us? Whatever your opinion, a company thinks that a small-screen TV might attract more attention as opposed to producing a big-screen TV. At least we think so. Because this company has produced the prototype of the world’s smallest television.
WORLD’S SMALLEST TELEVISIONS
In a world where our devices are becoming increasingly large screens, a company decided to go in another direction by making the world’s smallest television, the British Daily Mail reported. TinyCircuits, an electronics company, has introduced two new prototypes in its TinyTV lineup with 1.0-inch (26mm) and 0.6-inch (15mm) displays.
The model with a 1.0-inch (26 mm) screen is called TinyTV 2. It has been announced that the television, which remains true to its retro design, comes with two rotary knobs that adjust the volume and ‘change channels’ between videos.
TELEVISION AS A POSTAGE STAMP!
Its even smaller sibling, the TinyTV Mini, is just the size of a postage stamp, with a 0.6-inch (15mm) screen. It promises an hour of playtime.
It was stated that the videos could either be uploaded to the television by the user or transferred from the computer to the television using a USB-C cable.
According to the company’s statement, both TinyTV 2 and TinyTV Mini come with an 8GB microSD card that can hold over 10 and 40 hours of footage on their respective devices.
While both models can be controlled with built-in buttons, an optional infrared remote control is also offered. According to the information given, this controller can turn on the device, change the volume or change the video being played.
On the other hand, the devices are part of a KicStarter campaign. With this project, the company has managed to raise more than $128,640 so far.
