The document summarizes the transition from smart TVs to linked TVs. It discusses how initially smart TVs focused on connectivity but apps did not deeply integrate with TV programming. It then describes how linked TV aims to interweave TV and web content into a single, unified experience by annotating audiovisual content with concepts and using those annotations to automatically link parts of content to related web content. This provides an interactive video experience for users to browse objects within video programs. The document outlines the LinkedTV project which aims to develop these capabilities and provide access via a platform and clients across devices. It provides examples of potential linked TV scenarios.
