Thread: CES 2017

I did see moen there. I didn't get pickers of every piece because your all going to see it soon or its already out but there's going to be a conversion tof turn everything in your home into a smart home. App/voice/gesture/brainwave controlled everything windows, blinds, doors, coffee machines, lights, you name it there will be an app for it.

Are they tieing in with Alexa?

I've been doing a bit of the home automation lately ( Lutron Caseta systems), and the possibilities are not only amazing, but pretty cheap these days. Caseta switches, Logitech Harmony remotes, many of the streaming devices, and window coverings are all tieing together so that one button, or even a voice command can fire everything up, and/or shut it down. It would be cool to fire the shower up as you walk into the room.

Scooters linked to your phone for more customization, add your favorite pic the display, music, and so on.

This set up for cars showed up a few years back and has become the new standard for the future. No side mirrors, HUDs, and everything digital


Just a few different smart cars soon to be for sale

This is a searing wheel with all you car controls built into the wheel itself. THere are different leds lights to indicate if your increasing tempature, high beams, radio... Every button in you car can be controlled without removing your hands from the wheel. It all works with an activation move and sliding your hads in different patterns.

Hyundia had smart cars that look like a real car, no doms or odd sensors sticking out of the side, they put them all inside. They are also going to allow other smart cars to communicate and warn each other about road hazards they arou about to encounter.

This is there hyrogen power set up with the motor built into each tire.


They are also working on a exo-skeleton system. This works primarly as an assistant not as a new set of legs at this time.

Package cars that load themselves and load the next delivery to the driver before they reach the stop.

A look at a HUD converstion kit.

This is cool. This is your new smart head light. 14 for the main light with 8 levels of intensity. Sure it looks cool but what so special.....

When smart head light meets smart car, you get to keep your high beams one while the car turns off the LEDs that are going to shine on an approaching car to pedestrian.

Gesture control for your phone. Cooking, don't want to touch your phone, just wave to control

Super slim smart scooter

An umbrella that, well you can see. It takes in UV and converts it to simply red light.

This company was trying to show off some out of the box ideas they came up with. This actually makes should be pretty handy for anything involving robotic arms. In place of a gear the bubble gear and spin, angle, and rotate in a boat load of directions


Shmanzi smart trike, yada yada

Love coffee, hate making it? Theres a bot for that.

This isn't the best angle I have another photo buried away somewhere. BUT this is a holo display with a sonic plate under it. So as you views items on the display and touch them the plate shoots a sonic wave up so you feel like your touching something. There was a smallar no name company that hand a ball rolling around and it felt fucking real


Nvidia is releasing a new home HUB box so you can stream games from your rig to anywhere in your home.

They are also releasing home control mics. So you link every smart device, light, app controlled shower and what not and you can plug these mics into standard outlets so move around your house giving it orders on what to do.

3D printed cars

3D printed bikes

Looks like some pretty cool stuff there Soviet!! Thanks for sharing!

Let me know if you plan on doing a shower remodel. If i cant get you the goodies myself, i can at least make sure you are getting a good deal on all the correct material (valves and trim).

If you have never seen LGs OLEDs you have to experience one. I assure you my picture does not do it justice. They are beyond stunning.

They also come .15 inches thick


LGs K20 I believe...

Comes with standard and wide angle camera lens on both the front and back

With a secondary menu on the top of the screen to rapidly flip to most used apps

LGs smart fridges, butt load of control settings and built in display

The front doors can also flip to transparent so you can view the entire inside without opening the door.

Robots for everything from window cleaning to moewing your lawn

LGs ultra light laptop

Their Laser short throw projector if you don't have a room big enough to fit a 100" screen, this will do the job.
However, some no name Chinese company in previous year had the idea to add a sensor so if something is going to break the beam, it turns down the intensity. Like if a todler is going to stick there face over it. Didn't see that feature in LG's, Samsungs and so on.

More amazing picture tvs


Fiber optic HDMI for getting a 4k signal at 18ghz over 9 meters. The signal breaks down with out this tech.

Because you never have enough computability with your thumb drive

This is tactile VR. As you touch different items the device response depending on what you touch. Metal, and you get a firm vibration, a teddy bear and it has a weird softer response


88 inch 8k, so its time to huck your 4k tv to the curb

Intel is partnering with NBA, MLB, and NFL to install these VR cameras to stadiums. You can watch on the big screen or you can throw on the VR to feel like your at the game.

Intel working with Oculas to crank out a few VR games. The zombie shooter was alot of fun, but dangerous for bi standers


Intel and Mcafee Router, its a buy it once and done box that will block and flitter traffic before it even gets to your PC. The major advantage, with all these new smart controlled lights, blinds, and what not, if anyone gets access to your network they can really unleash havoc in your home. This helps prevent that.

The new power ranger armor on show

Wireless brain wave monitoring. This is a proof of concept that we can monitor your level of concentration. The set up here was to monitor your attention to the road as your driving. The idea is to allow smart cars to know when the person behind the wheel is zoning out or simply should be driving.



This required a device to be in contact with your wrist, but you could start programs, navigate a desktop all by though.

The next step towards turning your phone into a Tricorder. These are molecular readers for your smart phone. It can determine what your scanning, say if its fruit apple from orange, if its gone bad or not, if there are other chemicals present. It could determine real pills from sugar pills, different metal types and so on

I'm looking at houses lately and you are definitely on my short list of people to call once I get it since I'm looking at fixer houses!

Fatality making his yearly appearance

DJ pads, connect extra pads and controls together via magnet to play music and morph it up


Because what the hell took so long to figure this out

This was LGs transparent TV. So you have a piece of glass with a film on it and what not. You can pump a video signal through it and sorta see the image but also see behind it. Well LGs spot on. Now they had a dark background to help and if you look a the guys waist you can see a bit of the light coming through but this was a dam clear picture coming through clear glass.

LGs convection counter top. They added the white lines to show that any where you put a pot, it will cook

In the back there on the far table. You cover your plate with the glass top and it gets microwaved right there at the table

Directional Bluetooth translator. Okay, so the blue lights coming from the disc on the table show a linked user. Up to 12 per node. So lets say person A and B walk up to person C at hotel desk to check in. They link to the node. A speaks English, B speaks Spanish, and C speaks Chinese. The node auto detects who is speaking what and translates appropriately.

Samsung's idea for a phone reader. The idea is you put your phone on a table and the table produce a futuristic interface that simulates your phones home screen. So your table becomes your new device.

Tesla's scooter stations. Your register, buy a compatible scooter, and when you need to recharge your roll up, scan in, and exchanged dead cells for charged ones.

Tesla's self driving car.
