CES 2021 Is All-Digital

The Consumer Technology Association (CTA)^® is reimagining how to connect exhibitors, customers, thought leaders and media from around the world while prioritizing health and safety. We are excited to share that CES^® 2021 will be an all-digital experience.

CES 2021 Is All-Digital

January 11: Exclusive media-only access

January 12: Exhibitor showcase and conference programming

January 13: Exhibitor showcase and conference programming

January 14: Conference programming

For more than 50 years, CES has been the global stage for innovation. And CES 2021 will continue to be a platform to launch products, engage with global brands and define the future of the tech industry.

With the growing global health concerns about the spread of COVID-19, it is not possible to safely convene tens of thousands of people in Las Vegas in early January 2021 to meet and do business in person.

An all-digital CES 2021 will allow the entire tech community to safely share ideas and introduce the products that will shape our future. You’ll be able to participate in all the awe-inspiring moments of CES wherever you are in the world. We are designing a unique experience for the tech industry.

CES 2021 will offer a highly personalized experience:

Keynotes and conferences. Now you’ll have a front-row seat for groundbreaking announcements and insights from the world’s tech leaders completely online.
Product showcase. With this digital evolution of the CES show floor, you’ll be able to explore products and services, based on your interests and business, through dynamic product showcases or live demos.
Meetings and networking. You’ll be able to engage with the brands, thought leaders and business connections you care about with live interactions, meetups or roundtable discussions.

Technology has helped us all work, learn and connect during the coronavirus pandemic, and it has presented real solutions to help solve complex global challenges. We recognize that, particularly in these uncertain times, it is the partnerships of some of the most creative minds that bring the best solutions to life.

We’re looking forward to welcoming the global tech industry, from international brands to budding startups, to kick off the year with the world’s most influential digital technology event.

Mark your calendars for January 11-14 and be on the lookout for more exciting news about CES 2021. We plan to return to Las Vegas for CES 2022, combining the best elements of a physical and digital show.

Thank you for your continued support. Please stay healthy and safe.

Watch this App copy a real-world object, paste it on PC

Watch this app copy a real-world object, paste it on PC

Computer vision and augmented reality technology has made amazing strides in the last few years. One of the coolest examples is Google Lens’s ability to copy real-world text and paste it into an app.

Now, a new AR Cut and Pasteapp by programmer Cyril Diagne (h/t: PhoneArena) shows the ability to take a snap of a real-world object, have it cut out of its background, and pasted into Photoshop.

The video shows the programmer taking a snap of various objects (such as books and plants) and then adding it into a project he’s working on. It’s not exactly instantaneous, as Diagne says it takes roughly 2.5 seconds to cut and four seconds to paste. But he adds that there are plenty of ways to speed things up and that the project took place over a weekend.

It all makes for an extremely slick demonstration anyway, but it does come with other caveats. For one, this is merely a prototype right now rather than a commercially available app. It also requires Photoshop on your PC and the creation of a local server to link the app to Photoshop on your computer. However, Diagne notes that it might support more than just Photoshop in the future.

In any event, AR Cut and Paste is still an impressive use of machine learning and computer vision. And this could be handy for presentations and image editing, taking a ton of manual work out of the process.

You can check out the instructions and more via the GitHub page for the project over here. Otherwise, you can also check out more AR stories via our list below.

SAMSUNG dog bot concept futuristic surveillance smart mascot

THE SAMSUNG ROBOT DOG CONCEPT!

Most robotic pets focus on being “cute”. Cicco’s Gaetano Dog-Bot concept focuses on functionality.

The Turin-based designer chose Samsung as the corporate endorsement for the faceless android canine, which has an interactive display for a “face,” which transmits information through simple graphics such as exclamation points, dots, and lights.

Samsung Dog-bot Concept, futuristic surveillance smart mascot

Renders show that he identifies and chases a ball; We figured it would be even more useful for scouring the grounds, identifying intruders, and other potential threats.

Cicco’s futuristic Samsung Dog-Bot by Gaetano expresses emotions on the screen with question or exclamation marks.

While other smart domestic pets are designed to create an emotional bond with their owners, the Samsung Dog-bot clearly takes on an uncomfortable cyborg look and prioritizes its functionality as an outdoor surveillance dog.

In 2019, apps made their mark by reflecting the zeitgeist of our society and sitting at the nexus of digital and pop culture.

“Developers around the world inspire us all with innovative apps that have the power to influence culture and change our lives, and this year that is as true as ever.

Game Trend of 2019: Blockbusters Reimagined

This year, game developers worldwide burst onto iOS with a wave of world-renowned brands, all featuring leading-edge technology, bold design and innovative features that delivered a level of depth and quality never thought possible on mobile.

Apple Arcade Game of the Year: “Sayonara Wild Hearts” (Simogo)

In 2019, Apple expanded the App Store with the introduction of an all-new tab for Apple Arcade, a groundbreaking game subscription service without ads or in-app purchases.

For enhanced discoverability, experts create rich editorial content and curated collections of the best apps every day. The App Store is the single best place to explore the world of apps, and is available on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV and iMessage.

THE TECH INTERACTIVE

INTERACTIVE TECHNOLOGY Talented interactive artist MARPI (who worked with us on the @ Digital.Decade installation) shares his latest collaborative installation Wave Atlas. Wave Atlas is an aquatic world full of artificial digital life, which users create and discover simultaneously. The more users interact, the richer and more complex this ecology will be. Using manual pinch-and-drag gestures through Leap Motion sensors or triggers through an HTC Vive controller, users create segmented swimmers that they can release in a virtual oceanic expanse.

Once released, the creatures play, evolve, and interact, glowing sculptures in a digital stream. The creatures in Wave Atlas are inspired by nudibranchs and lush sea dragons, marine animals with striking color patterns, and a surprising variety of shapes.
