Brace yourselves for a glimpse into the future as we unveil the extraordinary technologies that are set to define our world in the years ahead.
Transparent TV’S
One of the biggest words going around this year at CES is “transparent” thanks to Samsung and LG unveiling their transparent TV’s. LG’s OLED T (T for transparent) is a 77 inch TV that displays images over a transparent OLED screen. The TV comes packed with “Always Ready” media made specifically for the clear backdrop, this includes a fish tank effect, leaves in the wind and live music performances. This combined with its Case/stand, if you can call it that, makes it clear LG sees this to be more than a TV but also ambiance machine for the room. For a more standard TV viewing experience a shade of black rolls out from under the TV to up the contrast levels.
Samsungs TV on the other hand is more of a future vision than it is something that’s attainable for consumers. Samsung transparent tv comes in the form of modular transparent microLED displays. These were displayed in various form factors at CES showcasing how they can be custom fit to the buyers liking.
Supernal S-A2 EVTOL
Flying cars may seem like a futuristic dream but for Supernal, a division of the Hyundai Motor Group, its much more real. The Supernal s-A2 eVTOL (electric vertical take off and landing) has been shown at CES 2024 and whilst it looks like something from the future, according to supernal, this all electric 5-man vehicle will be in the sky’s in just four years. The claim is that it can take people distances of 25-40 miles at max speeds of 120 mph up to 1,500 feet above the ground. The amazing Sc-Fi looking design for this was inspired using biomimicry, basing things of the shape of bees, an amazing example of using what nature has already done to propel us into the future. The other amazing thing about this vehicle is the fact it’s going to be incredibly quiet, clocking 65dB at take off and landing which is quieter than a dishwasher.
Adobe Edge Camera
The Adobe Edge Camera caught many people’s attention mainly because of its insane wi-fi range. The camera uses a Wi-FI HaLow systems which gives it 1.5 miles of range meaning you can place it anywhere on your property and mount it towards your house giving you a much better view than the traditional cameras that need to be mounted on your home pointing away. Adobe claims it has a 6-month battery giving you the freedom of being able to mount it anywhere without having to worry about a power source. The features don’t end there, the camera can distinguish between different objects such as packages, pets and people using its object detection. It also has face recognition meaning it can be programmed to only alert you when there are unknown visitors at your property.
Sennheiser Momentum Sport
Sennheiser’s latest fitness earbuds, the Momentum Sport, feature a heart rate sensor and a body temperature sensor that integrate into your fitness trackers. Users can also utilize biosensing and data analytics from Polar, a fitness tracking platform, giving you real time insights during workouts whilst wearing the earbuds. Its not just about these features, Sennheiser says the Momentum Sport earbuds have a new acoustic system and transducer allowing them to provide high quality sound in an earbud form. Also coming with an IP54 water and dust resistance rating they will stand up in even your toughest workouts.
Rabbit R1 AI Pocket Companion

Its not a phone, but a square device about half the size of an iPhone and is capable of answering questions in natural language and can control apps in your phone for you just by talking to it. Just press a button and ask the rabbit something like “call and uber home” or “how do I get to the shops” and the rabbit will perform the task for you.
Withings Beamo
