CES craziness

This is Dave stepping in to share about my experience at the Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas. For years, my dream has been to attend CES, because I love new gadgets! When I accepted my latest position at 3M, I knew I would finally get my chance to check out the big show. The show exceeded my expectations with over 30 football fields worth of amazing, bizarre, and cool gadgets making their debut to the world. Here's a little sampling of some of the crazy stuff I saw...

Electric powered roller shoes,

Laser virtual keyboards,


Neck massage robots,

"HapiForks" that buzz and light up when it senses you are eating too fast and too much,

And of course the iPoddy for the little Junior that has to have an iPad in reach wherever they go.  Other than these great creations, here is the list of my personal top 10 favorites from the show.

10. Synchronized dancing robots to Gangnam Style
9. The 1st ever see-through, 3-D TV
8. Smart Appliances - kitchen appliances that you can control with your cell phone
7. Cleaning Robots - robots that glide along windows and floors and suck up everything in its way
6. Medical Tracking Stuff - watches, bracelets, etc that tracks all health related activity
5. 4K TVS - Super, super, super High Def TVs
4. 20 touchpoint Tablets - bigger tablets that several people can touch
3. See-through Touchscreen Walls
2. Nekomimi - "cat ears" you wear that wiggle when they sense excitement from your brain waves
1. 3D Printing - create three dimensional objects anytime from your home
