Our Favorite Technologies We Saw at CES 2018
We've come back from the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show with several favorite examples of technology and design.
The 2018 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) will be remembered for many things: an unexpected winter deluge that left attendees scrambling for cover and the Las Vegas Convention Center leaking from every corner, the ensuing nearly 2-hour blackout, a jaw-dropping 146-inch television, the unexpected ornamental splendor of a chandelier-like 50-Qubit quantum computer, the emerging horizon of 8K displays, and the confluence of smart home devices into cohesive experiences available wherever we go.
Exhibitors at this year’s show honed in on evolutionary refinements; compared to previous shows, the overall “wow” factor was dimmed, but there was a palpable sense the promise of smart technology was finally coalescing into a more cohesive experience versus the patchwork landscape that has characterized connecting the smart home category.
Integration of AI and voice command seemingly spilled forth from nearly every corner of the show, with personal robots continuing to dazzle attendees (despite their charm, none were truly yet ready for primetime), and the biggest players like Google, Amazon, Samsung, and Intel all staking claim to tying the loose shoelaces of smart technologies vying to take control of the home, office, and automobile.
