  1. Gaming Companies Provide Streaming Services to TV Manufacturers

    According to Cisco’s latest annual Visual Networking Index report, online Internet traffic will reach 1.3 zettabytes by 2016, which is four times more than what we use today. At peak traffic time, Internet will reach 720 Tbps in 2016. Cisco reports this is the equivalent of 600 million people streaming Internet high-definition video simultaneously.  That is a lot of people streaming videos and Cisco is not the only one who is noticing.

    Streaming has definitely become the preferred method for people to watch content.  In a generation that expects instant gratification, why would we wait to download content before watching on our TV lift cabinet?  As media giants fight to compete for content licensing for their streaming video services, gaming companies are also partnering up with TV manufacturers to offer game streaming.

    At the E3 2012 conference this year, Gaikai announced they are partnering with Samsung to provide Samsung Smart TV’s with streaming game service.  This will be

  6. How To Determine What Lift To Buy

    Do you wish to buy a lift machine but are not sure whether your TV will fit?  Here is how to determine which lift will work best for your TV.

    Step 1: Measure your TV height without stand.  Remember the TV stand is not needed since all our lifts have a platform for the TV to sit on.

    Step 2: Go to the lift machine product page and click on the specification tab located under the picture.

    Step 3: Once on specification tab, you will see the closed and extended lift dimensions. Take the closed dimension height and subtract that from the extended dimension height.  This will give you the maximum height of the TV that will fit on the lift machine.  For example, on the Uplift 3700 Commercial Grade lift machine, the maximum TV height is 33” (70” minus 37”).

    As long as your TV height is less than the maximum TV height dimension, your TV will fit on the lift machine.  If you are planning to upgrade your TV to a larger screen in the future, it is better to go with the next size up so
