Hybrid broadcast broadband TV (HbbTV)

Connected TV

HbbTV is an international consortium and standard aimed at combining the broadcast and broadband delivery of interactive entertainment services to consumers. In practical terms, this means that you can get both standard broadcast FTA (free-to-air) TV and IPTV (internet delivered) TV services all in one place. This standard is integrated into all European TV sets. Interactive services include for instance call-to-action or gaming functionalities, or enable addressability through overlay or interactive banners on the TV set.
