Are TV ads 100% viewable? Not according to findings from a recent study conducted by IPG Media Lab and TVision Insights.

How do they measure TV ad viewability? The study used panel based technology from TVision Insights that can capture the number of people present in the room and whether they are watching the screen.

Non-viewable rate according to IPG Media Lab:
1) Digital Video — 31%
2) TV — 29%

Quote from Luke McGuinness– President @ TVision Insights:“The way TV has historically been measured does not capture the fact that TV does have a viewability problem that is similar to that of digital”
