Display KPI webpage on TVs

[miar1912]

Hi All,

We started implementing a new Data collecting system for our lines and I want to be able to display a few webpages on TVs on the production floor. What's the best way to do this independently without having to connect to a particular computer.

I looked into Raspi sticks but I'm unfamiliar with the difficulty and pricing.

Let me know your thoughts and suggestions

Do they have to interact with these pages? Is there Wifi or Ethernet on the production floor?

TTFN (ta ta for now)
I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert!

First put all of the info you want to display on one web page.
Buy smart TVs and simply pull up the web page.
If you want to display multiple you might be able to do it PiP.
But anything dynamic will require some video routing equipment.

Sorry for the late replies, I did not get a chance to get back sooner.

@IRstuff

They do not interact with the screen, just to display KPIs for the associates/prod floor. Yes, there is WiFi and/or Ethernet capability.

@EdStainless

Problem is we already have spare set of TVs and budget is tight so I'll have to use those. Can you link me some sources that I can read up on PiP, video routing equipment setup.
