Sports championships, award shows, and even political events analyzed - with brands like **Volvo, Dr. Pepper, Dawn, GE, Quicken, Juul, and more showing top TV engagement* New York - August 15, 2019 - TVision, the leader in TV *engagement* metrics for brands and networks, today released its H1 2019 TV *engagement* Report for the first half of 2019 ([T.Vision/H1Report](http://t.vision/H1Report)). The report identifies the brands, creative and TV content that scored highest for Ad Attention and best captured viewers’ Attention.  “As we know, all impressions are not created equal. All impressions are not necessarily viewed by human beings that are attentive, receptive and ready to buy your product or service,” explains media industry leader and TVIsion advisor, David Cohen. “Understanding TV Attention allows us to move beyond the ‘opportunity to see’ and understand who is actually seeing our ads in-market. It gives us a second-by-second view and allows us to look at our television investments in a similar way to digital video. It allows us to plan better, optimize better and extract the greatest value from our investment. It will also provide a solid foundation for the duration-weighted currency that the industry is moving toward.” For brand advertisers and networks, TVision’s TV Attention percentages help identify the most valuable ad placements. Within the new 2019 TV *engagement* report, actionable insights - measured at the person-level from every second of TV content in the first half of 2019 - uncover top TV *engagement*, across brands and networks.

Every time a person walks into the room, our technology detects who the viewer is, where they are in the room and what their eyes are looking at. We do all this without personally identifying individual users, and without transmitting any images or videos. The data for this report was collected from January 1 to June 30, 2019, from 5,000 homes across the United States. All data is weighted to represent the country. All demographic data was self-reported by the respondents.
