What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, except at CES... hopefully. The world's biggest tech expo, known as the Consumer Electronics Show, is kicking into high gear with more than 170,000 people in attendance. Over 3,200 exhibitors are optimistic that the technology displayed at the event will spread into the broader market, and with many on the hunt for innovations of the future, there's a good chance that it will.
Some revelations: Sony (NYSE:NYSE:SONY) is teaming up with Honda (NYSE:NYSE:HMC) on a new brand of electric vehicle called Afeela, while BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) unveiled its "i Vision Dee" concept car that changes color. Samsung (OTCPK:SSNLF) advanced a new era of screens with its pricey Micro LED technology and ASUS (OTC:AKCPF) revealed a laptop with the first 3D screen that does not need a pair of glasses. Google (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) is also finally jumping into media sharing, allowing phones to share music to a speaker running Android, regardless of which company made the device.
There were other strange and surprising gadgets like L'OrÃ©al's (OTCPK:LRLCF) eyebrow printer, electric powered in-line skates, and a toilet insert that can analyze urine to see if you're drinking enough water or track the reproductive cycles of women.
