Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, this is Jeremy. I have a few additional edit requests which will update the article, specifically in the History, Sound bars sections and the creation of a new SmartCast section:

  1. In the History section please add the following updates:
    • In the sixth paragraph, right after the last sentence "Cognitive Media Networks was subsequently renamed Inscape Data." Please add the following few sentences: "Inscape is Vizio's data subsidiary. Previously known as Cognitive Networks, it was founded by Zeev Neumeier, an early pioneer of the automated content recognition (ACR) industry, who serves as Vizio's chief innovation officer.[1] Inscape functioned as an independent entity until the end of 2020, when it was combined with Vizio Ads and SmartCast; the three divisions combining to operate as a single unit.[2]
    • Before the sentence "In March 2021, Vizio filed for and IPO," please add the following two sentences: As of 2020 Vizio was the second largest company in the US for sales of flat-screen televisions.[3] The company reported total revenue of $2.04 billion and net income of $102.5 million by the end of 2020.[4]
    • Please change the following sentence, to this: In March 2021, Vizio officially went public on the New York Stock Exchange[5][6] under the symbol VZIO.[7]
    • Finally, in at the very end of the History section, add the following sentence: As of March 1, 2021, the company has sold over 11 million sound bars and 80 million TVs,[7] and had more than 12 million active SmartCast accounts.[8]
  2. In the Sound bars section please update with the following:
    • In the second paragraph after "In 2013, Vizio released the Home Theater Sound Bar," please add the words and source: "a surround sound home audio system."[9]
    • After the last sentence please add the following bulleted list:
      • V-Series:[10][11] The V-Series for 2022 supports the standard version of "audio return channel" or ARC. The V51x-J6 has 5.1 -channel audio.[12]
      • M-Series:Mid-range sound bars.[13][14][15] The 2022 model M512a-H6 is a 5.1.2-channel sound bar. It has surround speakers that connect to a wireless sound bar and upfiring drivers have height cues for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X soundtracks, and has eARC support.[12]
      • Elevate Series: Motorized height sound bars detect Dolby Atmos and DTS-X signals.[16][11]
  3. Please add the following new section right after the above bulleted list:
    • The new section should be a third-tier section named "SmartCast"
    • Please add the following paragraph: SmartCast is the operating system/platform that Vizio uses in all their smart TVs.[17] It uses both Chromecast and Apple AirPlay.[18] [19] In June 2021 Vizio updated SmartCast with a Vizio voice feature as an alternative to Amazon's Alexa and Google's Assistant. The platform allows access to streaming apps like Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu, Netflix and Prime Video.[20][21]
