Anything that runs a modern web browser can be a signage screen:

  • Smart TVs: open the built-in browser, load your kiosk URL, full-screen it.
  • Raspberry Pi (recommended): a ~$35 Pi connected to any TV, with Chromium set to launch in kiosk mode pointing at your URL. Survives power cycles and runs for months unattended.
  • Any spare PC, Chromebox, or Fire TV stick with a browser.

How updates flow

Screens poll your site every few minutes and pick up new boards automatically after each import, images are versioned so browser caching never shows stale scores. There are no per-screen fees; run as many screens as you have TVs. (Commercial signage services charge $20+ per screen per month, your WordPress site does this for free.)
