The phrase “hospitality TV” refers to both the televisions present in hotel rooms and public areas as well as the programming that is broadcast on them. Hotels may offer a wide range of customisable options in hospitality TV programming to give visitors a better viewing experience.
These safeguards often include DRM (Digital Rights Management) technology, which are systems created to impede and prevent illicit activities. In contrast to home TVs, most hospitality TVs have DRM technology.
Hospitality TVs are smart hubs for messaging, branding, and guest experience, not just channels. The hotel TV has evolved along with visitor expectations, allowing for everything from lighting control to video streaming and room service ordering.
The word hospitality, which implies to welcome visitors or to provide a home away from home, comes from the Latin word “hospes,” which also means visitor or stranger.
The global Hospitality TV market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
To launch the service targeted at improving the “hotel TV” experience, Allente tasked 3SS with creating a specialised new software based on the Android TV OS. In order to facilitate viewing on TVs from Philips Professional Display Solutions that are specifically made for hotels, 3SS developed the software for the first integration of the new service.
Allente aims to provide visitors to hotels in the Nordic region with a user experience that is as good as what they get at home. The visitor has access to catch-up TV, pause and rewind TV, and more. Additionally, the new service gives hotel management more channel options.
Access to third-party websites that may be of interest to the guest as well as hotel-specific information, such as descriptions of amenities and check-out procedures, are also integrated into the user interface created by 3SS (UI). The development of the app presented several unique difficulties given the hotel industry.
Following each guest’s departure, it was necessary to completely wipe all personal data, reset the in-room TV system, and account for often changing UI language options. In order to ensure that users’ comfort and security when the change from one visitor to another are enhanced, 3SS created app features.
For Allente, the development and extension of the service will take place in stages, starting with the hospitality industry. According to the business, the upcoming deployments might occur in medical facilities like hospitals and nursing homes. More applications will be created to support more device platforms.
This endeavour represents yet another development in the alliance between Allente and 3SS. 3SS provided the delivery for the Canal Digital-launched OnePlace satellite and OTT service.
The Android TV deployment was expanded to the new combined customer base by In Allente, which was created by the merging of Viasat Consumer and Canal Digital. There are now more than 1 million subscriber homes in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland.
