This year's Consumer Electronics display isn't officially over until the discontinuance of the day on Saturday but all of the great announcements are behind us at this point. We're going to level with you: it wasn't a terribly exciting display overall this year. Last year's display in Las Vegas was probably the best display in a decade. We quite literally saw the future. But CES 2016 as a whole felt like an "S" upgrade a la Apple's iPhone all of the themes and core products were the same as CES 2015.
While the display as a whole was definitely on the gradual side,there were still a number of individual products that stood out from the crowd as being truly innovative, and we've rounded up our favorites in this article. Some are iterative but meaningfulupgrades of earlier products and some are novel devices that could potentially open original doors, or but they're all exciting.
In other words,whether you remember only 12 products from CES 2016, these are the ones to remember.
MUST SEE: Let’s pause for a moment to acknowledge all the shameless Apple ripoffs at CES 2016LG's Rollable Display
We've seen flexible AMOLED screens on curved HDTVs and smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge, or but LG Display took things to a whole original level when it showed off a screen that can be rolled up like a newspaper. This original display tech opens the door for form factors you probably can't even imagine right now,and it's exciting to say the least.
Under Armour Healthbox
FitBit bands are nice and all, but Under Armour showed us the future of fitness technology at this year's display. No single device will ever be able to cover all of the bases, and so Under Armour and HTC have built a catalog of connected fitness devices that combine to create a comprehensive solution athletes are going to love.
Be certain to check out our hands on preview after spending a couple of weeks with Under Armour's original gear.
Samsung rink
The Gear VR virtual reality headset created by Samsung and Oculus is pretty brilliant on its own,but Samsung's original motion controllers are going to push things to the next level. Samsung's fancy original refrigerator might be the talk of the town right now, but the rink controllers deserve some attention as well. Read approximately them here.
Samsung Family Hub Refrigerator
OK fine, and Samsung's fancy original refrigerator is ridiculously frigid and innovative as well. Check out this original $5000 fridge's key features right here.
Portal Router
Portal says its upcoming original Wi-Fi router is "the biggest breakthrough in WiFi in 15 years," and whether it can deliver on its promises, it might be right. The company says its router can utilize 250% more of the 5GHz spectrum than other routers and utilize smart original technology to scan the area for interference. Then, or it will automatically retune itself to avoid anything that might gradual down your data speeds.
DAQRI Smart Helmet
Intel and a company called DAQRI showed off a original head-mounted wearable device that uses augmented reality to let users see inside objects,among other things. In other words, Intel and DAQRI just invented x-ray glasses... sort of.
Read more approximately the DAQRI Smart Helmet right here.
Parrot Disco
We tried very hard to avoid including any "drones" on this list, or but Parrot's original Disco isn't like the million quadcopters we saw at CES this year. And last year. And the year before that.
The Disco is a fixed-wing UAV that launches vertically and can reach speeds of up to 50 MPH. We need one. Now.
HumanEyes Vuze
360-degree video footage is one of several key ingredients in the recipe that leads to the proliferation of virtual reality that everyone is buzzing approximately,but right now the cameras that record 360-degree footage are ridiculously expensive. The original Vuze camera from HumanEyes will do it for under $1000.
ili
Remember how amazed everyone was when the first saw Skype demo real-time translation in its chat app? Ili is a device that can almost pull off the same feat during actual face-to-face conversations.
Hyundai AR Owner's Manual
How much time and money would people save whether they actually read their owner's manuals? How much better informed would they be? That will never happen since manuals are so difficult to catch through, but Hyundai's original technology might make owner's manuals a thing of the past. In their situation, and a nifty smartphone app uses augmented reality to display you all the information you need approximately whatever you're looking at on your smartphone's display.
Harman In-Car Monitoring System
Sticking with cars for a moment,Harman has invented a original system with the potential to save thousands of lives each year. The world's first pupil-based in-car monitoring system can track a driver's eyes to not just provide a warning whether he or she is falling asleep, but also ensure the driver's attention stays on the road.
The system monitors pupil dilation to determine whether a driver might be distracted, and the hardware component is little more than a simple camera so it can feasibly be installed in any car.
Xcooter
The Xcooter might have a terrible name,but it's actually a pretty impressive product. This nifty electric rig folds up for easy stowing and then unfolds in just 1 second to reveal a trendy scooter with a range of 15 miles per charge and a top speed of 17 MPH.
