Making TVs Smarter

A wildly successful Kickstarter campaign launched Dubai-based startup Infinitec into production for its Pocket TV, a handheld microcomputer that turns any TV into a smart TV (think of it as a mega-sized tablet). Their original goal was US$100,000, but by the time fundraising ended, they had raised more than US$501,000. Backers on Kickstarter (an online funding platform) will all receive Pocket TVs this fall.
