I took apart a giant projection TV and there were a bunch of these lining the screen mount.

I feel like they probably have something to do with light level detection or infrared signal receiving but I genuinely have no idea. They could just as likely be part of the sound system for all I know.
Is there a reason you took your TV or are you just doing meth?
Is there a reason you're being disrespectful? If someone lines up parts of their TV like op did for the picture in this post, they are probably not on drugs right now.
There are a lot of really useful components in there that I already understand. The speakers, the lenses, even the cooling oil used on the projector tubes can be repurposed.
I use the actual shell of the TV as a rolling cabinet since the wheels are still in great shape. I'm working on a water heater to take advantage of the massive fresnel lens. There was a great deal of junk in there though.
