 +All the devices that can be plugged into a TV (usually) for the purpose of playing streaming media, using apps, and so on. If that's not exactly clear, think Roku, Amazon Fire TV stick, Apple TV, and so on (all featured here). CPU architectures are usually ARM, with the rare aberrations, while OSes will usually be Android or Linux, with occasional differences (such as tvOS).

 To be honest, it’s very hard to figure out what this thing actually was used for. Apparently, it’s a sort of Intel Atom 330-based device to play music? Whether it’s corporate, consumer, direct from a company akin to cable boxes, purchased at end-user level, etc. is unknown to me. To be honest, it’s very hard to figure out what this thing actually was used for.

 Little info about this, even on the exploiteers website. Appears to be native in some capacity, as the video at the start shows a bunch of wires hooked up to one of the Roku chips. May work on other Roku devices. Other WebAssembly based DOOM ports are not included, as they are just “unsigned” apps for the ROKU, rather than actually interesting/groundbreaking hacks. Little info about this, even on the exploiteers website.
