- 2-screen Interactive TV is slowly
giving way to Single-screen
Interactive TV. However it's
still a dominate form of Enhanced and
Interactive
Television.
(1) (This is the primary definition) -
The most dominate example of 2-screen TV is when a TV program asks you
to go to their Web site for more information. If that Web site makes
available interactive features (as they most often do,) technically
it's known as "2-screen Interactive TV."
2-screen Interactive TV was developed for
use as so many television systems currently lack a built-in return
path. With 2-screen Interactive
TV, someone
watching TV can separately use a
computer, phone or another device to interact with that TV program,
the network operator, the program's viewers and/or advertisers. An
example is Mobile Interactive TV.

programming
and return
path
(often the Internet) are presented
