The annual four-day extravaganza with more than 3,600 exhibitors opens in Las Vegas on Wednesday and is likely to present innovation across a range of sectors, from health care to cars, connected homes, virtual reality and gaming.
But Blau said the innovations are ‘often evolutionary, not revolutionary’.
Volkswagen may unveil its very first electric vehicle.
It is expected to be a variant of a microbus – linking the German automaker’s plans to launch 20 battery-powered or plug-in hybrid vehicles by 2020 to a model from the past.
Given the tendency for televisions to dominate at CES, we’re likely to see thinner, larger and sharper 4K televisions, as well as the usual assortment of cameras, camcorders and other devices such as smartwatches.
That’s actually the case with much of what LG is showing at CES: these are concepts that will eventually filter down into actual products, from a variety of companies.
Industry giants including Samsung, Sony, LG, Huawei and Netflix as well as auto manufacturers including Audi and BMW will all have a presence at the show, as well as demonstrate new technology.
‘We are in the sweetest of the sweet spot in the TV market, ‘ NPD analyst Stephen Baker told AFP while discussing CES.
But don’t despair. There will still be some exciting announcements made at CES 2016 – and it looks like one of the most exciting things we’ll see at this year’s show might have already been unveiled.
Blau expects the drones on display at the show to be more sophisticated, with easy controls and even applications that let them be operated using smartphones.
Electronics makers are also building smart technology into all manner of devices, allowing them to adapt to how people use them, responding to voice or gesture, for example.
The development of as soon as-dumb units getting smarter will proceed to incorporate mild bulbs, distant controls, thermostats and different units within the residence in addition to “wearables” resembling jewellery or clothes. While we think there will always be new products at the show, this year seems like it will be tilted toward the software and services that power those products.
Samsung and Google-owned Nest have been additionally anticipated to make strikes to be at the middle of sensible houses, the place the market is vexed by the shortage of a single normal or system for units to talk with one another.
Other products expected to be spotted at the CES 2016 include autonomous or self-driving cars and many wearables.
Mark Boyadjis of IHS Automotive referred to automobiles as a “core pillar” of the show. The Consumer Technology Association event is not as popular as it was used to be, but there are still companies who prefer to showcase their products during this event.
Though, the big companies do not see CES as the best platform to leak their technology and new products, the small businesses finds CES as the big and an excellent opportunity to catch the eye of journalists and key buyers from the retailers.
CES will, of course, have its share of colorful creations including a Haier moving refrigerator created to resemble the beloved R2-D2 of “Star Wars” film fame.
“As for what sells, we can not know that till later this yr”, Baker stated of the ocean of choices set to go on show.
