and there s no time for the tech world to slowly ease back into things following the holidays That s because CES is in full swing with all manner of companies descending on Las Vegas to reveal their latest innovations and what they re planning to bring your way in the near future nbsp Many of the Engadget crew are on the ground to check out as much of the new tech as possible Of course we re keeping tabs on all of the major CES press conferences too Samsung held its First Look presentation which focuses on home products while LG has shown off a wide array of TVs and Lego unveiled its new Smart Brick technology We ve heard from the major chipmakers gone hands on with Samsung s trifold phone checked out some funky laptops and seen some cute robots There s some hot gaming gear at the show too not to mention some weird tech You don t necessarily have to wait to get your hands on all of these gadgets either Some are available to buy right now You can catch up on all of the big CES announcements and some of the more offbeat gizmos we ve seen right here We ll be keeping this story updated throughout the week nbsp We also have CES live updates with all the latest news from the event LegoLego introduced the Smart Brick at CES LegoIn its first CES appearance Lego announced the Smart Brick a standard sized brick with a mm ASIC chip inside that s designed to respond in different ways depending on what set you re building and how you re building it Using what Lego calls the Play Engine and integrated copper coils each brick can sense things like motion orientation and magnetic fields plus its own distance direction and orientation in relation to other Smart Bricks Each brick also has a teeny tiny speaker built in that will play audio tied to live play actions rather than only pre recorded clips Accompanying Smart Bricks are Smart Tags and Smart Minifigures which have their own capabilities ーone of which is letting Smart Bricks know what context they are being used in All of these pieces tie together via a local wireless layer dubbed BrickNet that in part lets Smart Bricks know where they are placed in relation to other smart components The first Smart Play partner is unsurprisingly Star Wars which will launch three all in one sets using Smart Bricks Smart Tags and Smart Minifigures The piece Darth Vader TIE Fighter set will cost the piece Luke s Red Five X Wing set comes in at and the piece Throne Room Duel amp A wing set will set you back The speakers in these sets can emit lightsaber swooshes fighter sounds and The Imperial March Engadget deputy editor Nathan Ingraham got to check out Lego s Smart Play system in person and I ve never been more envious of him One of the Star Wars sets allows you to have an interactive lightsaber duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader Not only does the Vader minifigure have his signature heavy breathing sound the speaker emits the Sith Lord s nooooo yell if he loses the duel All of this seems extremely cool I m looking forward to seeing what else Lego and fans can do with the Smart Play tech LGLG s CLOiD robot LGAlong with some TVs which we ll get to momentarily LG brought plenty of other products to CES For one thing the company shone the spotlight on its CLOiD robot Like the far creepier looking X Neo the CLOiD is designed to help with household tasks such as starting laundry cycles folding clothes unloading the dishwasher and serving food This appears to be more of a concept than something you ll be able to buy anytime soon During an in person CES demo Engadget senior reporter Karissa Bell saw CLOiD competently pull off some household tasks albeit very slowly The company also debuted the LG Sound Suite a modular home audio system it developed in conjunction with Dolby to take on the likes of Sonos Just ahead of CES LG pulled back the curtain on a new batch of xboom speakers as well as some monitors and ultralight Gram laptops that are made

previous gen Lunar Lake processors ーand battery life improvements for laptops The Ultra Series includes a new Arc B integrated GPU with percent more graphics cores double the cache and GPU TOPS of

for EngadgetMicro RGB is a term you can expect to hear about quite a bit in the coming months and years especially when you re shopping for your next TV Micro RGB is a new tech that s similar to Mini LED though it uses red green and blue LEDs instead of white backlights Contrast ratios aren t quite as high as those on Micro LED and OLED displays since the pixels can t be turned on and off individually However Micro RGB units are said to be brighter and more color accurate than TVs that use other display tech in part because the LEDs in these screens offer smaller more customizable dimming zones nbsp Read reporter Steve Dent s explainer for a deeper dive into how Micro RGB differs from other types of display tech We re seeing more of these TVs pop up at CES including a mammoth inch concept model that Samsung brought to Las Vegas The company unveiled its first Micro RGB TV in August ーthat s a inch model This year you can expect it to start offering Micro RGB TVs in and inch

version of masks that we ve seen from the likes of Dr Dennis Gross Omnilux Therabody and Shark in recent years However it s only in prototype form for now and it isn t expected to hit the market until next year nbsp The Light Straight Multi styler uses infrared light to help dry and style hair in similar fashion to L Oreal s AirLight Pro It s said to have sensors that employ quot built in

presentation about DLSS NVIDIANVIDIA announced the latest version of its DLSS Deep Learning Super Sampling upscaling tech DLSS is said to offer sharper visuals thanks to the nd Generation Super Resolution Transformer which is available now for all RTX GPUs NVIDIA says this offers better temporal stability reduced ghosting and improved anti aliasing On GeForce RTX Series GPUs DLSS will be able to generate up to five extra frames for each traditionally rendered one and deliver up to K Hz path traced performance NVIDIA says The Dynamic x Frame Generation feature will be available for those graphics cards sometime this spring NVIDIA also detailed a new version of its G Sync variable refresh rate tech It says that G Sync Pulsar can minimize motion blur by effectively quadrupling your refresh rate So Hz gameplay will seemingly offer up a perceived effective motion clarity of over Hz with G Sync Pulsar enabled You ll need a G Sync Pulsar compatible display to use this feature Most displays have a backlight that s always on so images fade from one frame to the next On G Sync Pulsar displays there are several horizontal backlight sections The backlights pulse from top to bottom This is said to help the pixels in each frame stabilize before they re backlit resulting in lower motion blur It s interesting stuff Acer AOC ASUS and MSI are each releasing a G Sync Pulsar compatible inch monitor this week BitDo FlipPadBitDoThe FlipPad is one of my favorite things I ve seen coming out of CES this year It s an BitDo mobile game controller that s designed for vertical use There are a bunch of neat physical controllers for phones that are built for landscape mode But many mobile games are played with the phone oriented to the vertical position And that s not to mention emulators that allow you to play the likes of Game Boy titles while your phone stands tall So it s neat to see BitDo offering a physical controller that ll do the trick The company also unveiled a new Xbox controller with swappable joysticks and button modules A keyboard thing CorsairWhy have a numpad on the side of your keyboard when you can have a highly customizable controller instead Corsair slapped a Stream Deck into a keyboard and it looks absolutely rad I ve yet to take the plunge on a Stream Deck style controller and since I d rather not have an extra device on my desk I m very tempted to pick up the Galleon SD which is available now It has programmable keys that you can use for gaming give me that Helldivers profile so I don t have to keep punching in stratagem codes or livestreaming but there are plenty of other applications too They can help with video editing controlling smart home devices or simply adjusting media playback There s a five inch screen and two dials for fine control too Oh and it s a full sized mechanical keyboard to boot GameSir had a couple of interesting controllers to tell us about The Swift Drive which seems to be a working name has a steering wheel with force feedback in the middle of a regular gamepad It s a cool idea and it seems to work pretty well The Swift Drive should hit the market later this year In addition GameSir teamed up with Hyperkin to make a modular controller that works with phones tablets and Nintendo Switch consoles You ll be able to slot those devices into the X Alteron s grip as you might with a Backbone or Razer Kishi controller though there s a Bluetooth option for PC gaming too The magnetic modules include ones styled after the GameCube and Nintendo and there ll be one with a trackpad that s made with first person shooters in mind There s no pricing or release date for the X Alteron yet but I m eager to try it Elsewhere on the gaming front Lenovo revealed a SteamOS powered version of the Legion Go That variant of the handheld is heading your way in June for Razer had some concept gear to show off including an AI driven headset with built in cameras that can recognize objects and text and a

are almost inches high While Dreame s vacuum positions its legs horizontally to climb stairs with tank style traction Roborock s Saros rover pushes itself upwards on extendable legs to reach higher
