Parks Associates reports one-tenth of U.S. broadband households intend to purchase a Smart TV in the second half of 2011. This number is up from 6% in the first half of the year.

Tricia Parks, CEO of Parks Associates, stated, "Advertising campaigns from manufacturers such as Sony (NYSE: SNE), Samsung and VIZIO have boosted consumer awareness and interest, making connectivity a must-have feature for new consumer electronic products."

The biggest name in technology, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) recently announced the planned purchase of Motorola Mobility (NYSE: MMI). Google's Larry Page and Motorola Mobility's Sanjay Jha have both mentioned television and set-top boxes as a prime area of future development for Google and Motorola.

Niche manufacturer of the Smart TV, Nyxio Technologies (OTCQB: NYXO) can plan to benefit from the expected rise in Smart TV sales. Nyxio is a provider of Smart TV and Tablet PC technology and has recently announced the launch of the VioSphere Smart TV, the first -- and only -- fully integrated Smart TV with a built in PC. The Viosphere gives users a full-spectrum entertainment system; with touch-screen capabilities, the VioSphere Smart TV combines HDTV technology with a personal computer and media center all in one.
