The Consumer Electronics Show, held every year in Las Vegas, featured over 4100 exhibitors and 149,000 attendees from all over the world. This is where new gadgets and ideas come to be shown. Many new things go on to be successful, and many more never make it. I’ll be showing the latest in robotics and technology. I will also show a peek at last year’s Dayton Hamvention and look ahead at this year’s event coming up in May.
