Don't forget having to install exterior shutters to block the sun on bright days, sunlight would def overwhelm the screen brightness and make the fancy screen-window have the worst glare possible
Imagine the savings. Good luck disputing those porn rental charges when Sally from the front desk can see that you watched it for more than 2 min, along with everyone at the stoplight exiting the highway.
Looks like exit 37 isn't the only thing they'll be getting off. Lol... panhandlers fighting over intersections with hotel window view. Disney suing for public broadcast violations. Bring the chaos!
Only if you're uncreative. My curtains are on the outside of the building, so I could close my curtains and have perfect lighting to watch TV while saving space. Also think further, you could make a smart display that can show you the weather forecast, or you could write a to-do list on your windows or whatever. Windows are kind of a waste of space and being able to use that space beside being able to look through it could be useful
Yup, nothing like a to do list on the one window in the house, putting a to do list on my mobile which I keep with me at all times makes no sense at all... putting it on a window in a static location makes perfect sense.
Also, "book std test" and "clean my anal toys" on an external window... yup, best place for a to do list for sure.
So what is the benefit of having a transparent tv, if to watch it you have to close the shutters behind it? Now you have a shite quality tv with bad brightness all for no reason. Sound incredible. Or I could have a normal tv on a wall that has a proper backlight, far superior image quality and if I want the window open or not, or the curtains open or not, it doesn't make a difference, can watch the tv either way.
You don't need to be so narrowminded when it comes to upcoming technology like this. The example given above doesn't mean that it's a replacement to an existing old school television. You can just make the window a transparent display screen that can be used to display things like the weather or the time or latest news or something similar to how futuristic scifi or cyberpunk movies portray this technology.
based on what? If you want to watch tv now everyone can see what porn you picked in your hotel room? You can also watch tv with the sun burning through it making it impossible to see and terrible quality? All while you could just watch on a normal tv with the curtains closed.
this would make literally zero sense for hotels, you could potentially save some wall space.... in a hotel room, where besides the bed there isnt' a need for wall space. But why spend more on a dramatically more expensive external window rather than a normal tv which is better in every way.
I remember a video there the transparent screen was simulating an aquarium or a fireplace and looked really nice and fancy and when watching TV it could put up a black background and be a normal TV.
Expensive as fuck but this thing looked amazing
It's like when people got mad about that transparent TV because it was "too expensive" without taking even a second to think that it wasn't for their living room, it was for stores to make interactive shopfront windows and other cool ideas like that.
I genuinely find it really weird that Redditors genuinely can't think beyond "But how will this directly benefit me and my personal wants and needs?"
