Top 5 innovations from CES 2016 , Las Vegas

Las Vegas – This year’s CES showed us that the technology industry is set to make long-anticipated innovations more worthwhile for consumers in 2016, as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence (AI) and wearables become more relevant to how we live our lives.

  • New launches by Intel point towards an understanding of the lives of customers
  • Advancements in AI mean that smart technology solutions are coming to the home

‘It’s plain to see that the consumer technology industry is waking up to the way that consumers live,’ says Peter Firth, LS:N Global insight editor. ‘There was a compelling array of lifestyle technology at the show this year, with a focus away from what devices can do, and more on how and why they should do them.’

In this film, we learn about the top five innovation picks from the trade show floor. For a more detailed round-up, read our CES Show Review Part 1.
