CBS NEWS, NEW YORK.
TRY NOT TO CRY.
IT IS INCREDIBLE AND I
BELIEVE THAT WAS A TEAR, TOO.
HUNDREDS OF THE LATEST HIGH
TECH DEVICES ARE ON DISPLAY IN
THIS ELECTRONICS SHOW IN VEGAS.
INCLUDING GADGETS FROM 20
COMPANIES IN NORTH CAROLINA AND
JOINING US FROM THE FLOOR IS AN
EXPERT.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE COOLEST
DEVICES ON DISPLAY THIS YEAR?
Reporter: THAT IS A HARD
QUESTION TO ANSWER.
THERE ARE SO MANY COOL ONES.
WE HAVE ASSEMBLED FIVE
HIGHLIGHTS AND I WILL START
WITH SOUND BECAUSE SOUND
MATTERS TO SO MANY CUSTOMERS
AND SO MANY CONSUMERS WHEN THEY
CONNECT TO THEIR AUDIO DEVICES
THEY WANT TO HEAR GREAT SOUND
WITH A KICK TO THE MOVIES THEY
WANT TO HEAR GREAT SOUND AS IT
WAS INTENDED.
THAT REQUIRES A GREAT SET OF
HEADPHONES.
BUT TRADITIONALLY YOU HAVE TO
PLUG IN THE HEADPHONES AND NOW
AUDIO TECH HAS INTRODUCED THE
M50X BT. THAT IS A BREAKTHROUGH
FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE.
YOU GET THE BEST OF BOTH
WORLDS.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PLUGGED IN
BUT YOU DO GET THAT QUALITY
SOUND THAT THE PRODUCERS
INTENDED.
WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH CAR
TECHNOLOGY?
Reporter: A LOT OF PEOPLE
ARE TALKING ABOUT SELF DRIVING
CARS, SELF ENTERTAINING CARS,
HONDA HAS THE DREAM DRIVE
SYSTEM WHICH ACTUALLY HAS
SOMETHING FOR EVERYBODY IN THE
VEHICLE.
UP FRONT, GROWN-UPS CAN CONTROL
APPS THAT ARE INTEGRATED WITH
THE CAR ITSELF, LIKE MAKING
RESERVATIONS AT RESTAURANTS AND
KNOW HOW FAR AWAY THEY ARE
BECAUSE THE CAR IS MITIGATING
WITH THE RESTAURANT AND THAT
APP ITSELF, LIKE YELP,
COMMITTED RESERVATION BASED ON
THE TIME.
IN THE BACK, KIDS ARE USING
CUSTOM ENTERTAINMENT BILL FOR
THE CAR AND CAN CONTROL THEIR
CLIMATE IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL
SEATS SO FEWER COMPLAINTS FROM
THE BACK HAVE YOUR GROWN-UPS
UPFRONT MAKES FOR BETTER DRIVE.
THAT IS PRETTY COOL.
WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT
CARS THE WHAT ABOUT THE
TECHNOLOGY AROUND THE HOUSE?
LET'S TALK WITH ROBOTIC
TECHNOLOGY FOR THE HOUSE.
EVA MAKE SOMETHING CALLED THE
960 WHICH IS A GREAT NAME.
IT IS A ROBOTIC VACUUM AND MOP
THAT IS A I POWERED SO IT
LEARNS BUT ALSO HAS VISUAL
INTERPRETATION WHICH MEANS IT
LEARNS AND INTERPRETS WAS IT
SEES IN FRONT OF IT AND LEARNS
NOT TO DRIVE OVER IT FOR
EXAMPLE LIKE SHOELACES OR POWER
CORDS WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE
TANGLE IT.
THAT IS A GREAT DEVELOPMENT FOR
ANYONE WHO WANTS TO CLEAN THE
HOME.
AND THEN A COOKING APP WORKS
WITH THEM. THEY HAVE RECIPES
THAT ACTUALLY ARE DESIGNED FOR
HOW MUCH TIME IT WILL TAKE
BETWEEN NOW AND WHEN YOUR KIDS
SHOW UP FOR DINNER.
IF YOU HAVE 30 MINUTES, WHAT
CAN MAKE IT 30 MINUTES, GUESS
WHAT, ALL THOSE RECIPES SHOW UP
AND YOU CAN CONNECTED TO THOSE
WHIRLPOOL DEVICES REMOTELY AND
EVEN PREHEAT THE OVEN ON THE
WAY HOME THROUGH THE APP.
VERY NICE.
MY FAVORITE PART HERE, I
THINK THESE ARE GREAT, MY
FAVORITE SO FAR FRANKLY IS THE
LAST OF THESE, WHICH IS CALLED
-- THEY ARE PARTNERING WITH FLO
TECHNOLOGIES WHICH WILL
REVOLUTIONIZE HOW WE MONITOR
WATER.
THERE IS A LEAK OR WORSE, LIKE
A BURST PIPE, THEY DETECTED AND
AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF WATER TO
YOUR HOME IN YOUR HOUSE SO THE
LEAK WHICH WOULD'VE GONE HOME
ALL DAY IF YOU WERE AT WORK ALL
WEEK IF YOU'RE ON VACATION AND
SHUT OFF BEFORE IT GETS STARTS.
WATER -- THAT MANAGEMENT IS
UNBELIEVABLE AND IS REAL POWER
TO ANYONE WHO HAS A HOUSE AND
IS WORRIED ABOUT THAT KIND OF
DAMAGE.
THAT IS FANTASTIC FOR FOLKS
WHO LIVE IN AREAS PRONE TO
PIPES FREEZING DEEP IN THE
WINTERTIME.
IT CAN HELP THEM OUT A LOT.
THAT IS EXACTLY RIGHT.
FROZEN PIPES CAN MEAN LITERALLY
