3D smart TVs combine 3D viewing capabilities with internet connectivity and apps, allowing users to stream content, access information, and install additional applications. While early efforts at 3D TV and connecting TVs to the internet failed due to technological limitations, the widespread adoption of high-speed internet and advances in hardware enabled 3D smart TVs to succeed in the late 2000s and early 2010s. However, 3D viewing is still not a market leader, while smart TV capabilities have driven a booming industry.

2. WHAT WAS THE FUNDAMENTAL INNOVATION THAT
DROVE THE SUCCESS OF THE PRODUCT? WERE THE FUNDAMENTAL INNOVATIONS HIGH-TECH OR LOWTECH? The most fundamental innovation in the Smart TV is the feature of viewing in 3D. Smart TVs may be thought of as aninformation applianceor thecomputer systemfrom ahandheld computerintegrated within a television set unit, as such smart TV often allows the user to install and run more advanced applications orplugins/add-onsbased on a specific platform. Smart TV enables access to movies, shows, video games, apps and more. Some of those apps include Netflix, Spotify, Youtube, and Amazon. The innovations were high-tech.
3. WHAT ROLE DID CONTEXT (TIME,
PLACE, OPPORTUNITY) PLAY? HAD SIMILAR PREVIOUS EFFORTS FAILED? WHY? WHY DID THIS ONE WORK? During its initial years, due to lack of technology and necessary hardware, the quality of 3D movies very poor.
Due to the lack of high speed internet the idea of a Smart TV
was not feasible as high bandwidth is required for streaming. Currently, wide availability of high speed internet and newer hardware the idea of Smart TV can be easily implemented taking advantage of the above. The mass acceptance of digital television in late 2000s and early 2010s greatly improved smart TVs.
4. IS THE INNOVATION OBVIOUS
RETROSPECT? During its earlier stages, it was not thought that the idea of a 3D TV would not be feasible to propel it into wide stream market. The idea of connecting TVs to the internet to make them Smart was not even thought off.
5. HAS THE INNOVATION PROVIDED OR
SUPPORTED A DOMINANT INDUSTRY POSITION FOR THE INVENTOR? WHY OR WHY NOT? In the 1970s couple of movies were released with 3D technology but due to lack of necessary tools it did not succeed.
This concept was again reignited in the 2000s and since then the Smart TV industry is booming while the 3D is still yet to become a market leader.
