Over-the-top TV functionality is being introduced into Sharp TV sets sold in the Italian market following an agreement with the British-based Oregan Networks.
The company has supplied its media delivery engine that powers the Internet (Aquos Net) functionality inside the TV. The new Sharp LC32-LE225 is now available through Italian retailers.
Consumers can browse popular Internet video and social networking sites without using a PC, or alternatively, source personal media content from other devices that have storage capabilities, using Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) protocols for interoperability over wired or wireless networks.
Local language, branding, and available content have been tailored to the Italian market.
