The company is showing off a prototype tablet, the Viera Tablet, that is primarily intended to complement its Viera Connect Internet television service, which allows viewers to use a series of apps on their televisions. The television can also interact with various devices, including a scale and an armband that Panasonic is touting as way to turn a television into a home-workout system.
The tablet would serve as the remote. At Panasonic’s booth, it is using ESPN broadcasts for its demonstration. The basic broadcast is showing on the television, while the user can look at different camera angles—or different channels—on the tablet, which is connected via a Wi-Fi network. This allows a viewer to watch two things at once, or to preview another channel on the tablet and then push it onto the big screen. Someone could also wander into another room with the tablet while continuing to watch the programming.
The tablet runs Google’s Android operating system. There was no information on when it would be available or how much it would cost.
A representative at the Panasonic booth said that the tablet is primarily intended to be used in tandem with the television. He also said that while Panasonic is considering developing the functionality as software that would run on tablets made by other manufacturers, it is not actively doing so now.
