The "transparent TVs" shipping last year seemed ok.

From the Linus Tech Tips hands on review of one (Dec 2018), they seem like they're already useful for some scenarios. eg shop windows:

That is pretty cool. I hadn't thought what it would be like with two of these back to back in a gaming situation.

From the video you linked the opacity seems to be much better than I expected. I'm hoping one or more of the high end TV shops put this into their show room so I can see it in person.

If creatively combined with the new "transparent Loos" in Japan, they could enable some pretty pretty funny pranks:
