How to display photos on a TV screen?

Fri Oct 04, 2013 12:58 pm

Hello,

After having developed a prototype based on a raspberry pi which enable people to broadcast photos (collected on my webiste) on a TV, I would like to find a manufacturer who will be able to produce it in order to sell it as a commercial good.

Do you know companies which offer such a product?

Thank you for your answer, have a good day.

What are you asking?
1. How to display photos on a TV using RasPi?
2. How to find a company to build a Pi-based product for you?
3. Are there such products on the market already?

Apple, Samsung, Panasonic, and anyone else who makes "Smart" TV's, phones, tablets etc. Under the covers, they're all the same - a computer with internet connection, screen and HID (keyboard, mouse, remote control etc). Even the camera's these days can connect to TVs to stream photos, and store them on the web.

So while your idea might be a fun project for you, unless you have something unique and patentable in mind, then I'm afraid the market has already been captured and the money has gone.
