According to wikipedia

Smart TV, which is also sometimes referred to as “Connected TV” or “Hybrid TV”, (not to be confused with IPTV, Internet TV, or with Web TV), is the phrase used to describe the current trend of integration of the internet and Web 2.0 features into modern television sets and set-top boxes, as well as the technological convergence between computers and these television sets / set-top boxes. Similar to how the internet, web widgets, and software applications are integrated in modern smartphones, hence also the name (“Smart TV” akin to “Smart Phone”)
