I'd use a raspberry pi set up as a kiosk. If you google 'raspberry pi kiosk mode' there should be a fair handful of simple tutorials.

Agreed, they're cheap and functional. We have a couple powering a Grafana dashboard and a Dashing one. It's pretty trivial to set them up using Raspbian and create a script that loads the browser full screen and then the dashboard of choice. If you need to display more content on fewer devices then Grafana can also do playlists so that you can rotate content, plus there are some browser plugins to let you automate tab focus (so a few tabs with a dash each and one displayed every 30 seconds, for example).

Awesome - thanks for the advice!

Hi nrjames, I'm working on a small service that will let you do that using a Raspberry Pi 3 and about 10 minutes of your time. Would you be interested in super early access? It would be awesome to get some feedback as I'm trying to solve that exact problem: Get a dashboard on a HD tv in an easy way.
