I was on one bus. Im not sure of the number. But was travelling
from Liverpool Street via City to Picadilly area and they have a
screen showing news and a program about underwater life. Surely
this could be used to display the next stop before you get there?

Service RV1 (Tower Gateway to Covent Garden via Southwark)
displays illustrated details of the next stop including transport
interchanges and tourist attractions on several LCD panels
throughout the bus, albeit in a silent fashion.

I've no idea how it works, but it does seem to do the job very
well.

It is very good. Or at least it is when it's working, which seems to be
less than half of the times I've travelled on that route.
