- What's the hottest, coolest, craziest tech from CES 2018?
I have your insider information live from Las Vegas.
(happy jingle)
It, finally, woo, dance, hasn't even started yet.
About to begin the world's largest consumer electronics
show live from Las Vegas, hi, I'm
the YouTube Deal Guy, Matt Granite.
Kind of snuck into the building, see where it says
caution tape, cranes going up behind me,
people still setting up, but I wanted to make sure you,
the awesome subscribers of my Deal Guy
YouTube channel, get in here first.
And I wanna show you right now, everything I've seen.
I've been roaming the aisles, visiting the booths,
before anyone else, to show you the craziest tech,
and what's hot at CES this year.
At the end of the video, I'm gonna talk about
some upcoming deals, a huge giveaway tied to CES,
but first, what's big in tech?
Forget smart cars and smart homes
and say hello to smart cities.
This is actually one of the first things that we saw.
Google doing all sorts of interesting things.
Actually we saw this within Toronto on the Google sidewalks.
My hometown, but smart cities that are accessible
and correspond with the world around you.
A huge phenomenon and focus of CES 2018.
Sports tech, yeah, bigger than ever before.
We are seeing new ways to keep you active, fit, athletic,
and intelligently connected to your different devices.
Artificial intelligence, my goodness,
have I seen a lot, and we're just getting started.
We've moved from virtual reality to augmented reality,
and this is a year where things
are taking shape in a new way.
It's also no longer just the big brands.
I know I've got a few behind me right now,
and some over there, but this is a year of startups at CES.
That's right, from the smaller companies, the mom and pop
shops, to the crowd-funding and crows-sourced companies,
you might have seen them on Shark Tank,
you might have seen them elsewhere,
they are now a huge phenomenon and a huge focus of CES 2018.
Digital health, yep, absolutely, we have an entire
convention center dedicated only to the health tech,
which I will be focusing on later this week,
as well as the connectivity from smart cars,
to smart trucks, smart key fobs, and all sorts
of other vehicles, to get you from point A to point B.
Now at bargain prices as the smart technology
is now more accessible and less expensive than ever before.
Robotics, absolutely one of my favorite topics
and trends at the Consumer Electronics Show.
Robots to help you around your home
for those with disabilities living with other
accessibility issues now have robotics
and artificial intelligence to rely upon.
Ways to integrate these into your home or to your office,
and ways to correspond and communicate with different robots
that all share the same brain.
If you think about Amazon Alexa, this is kind of like that.
For example, the Amazon Echo is connected to a cloud
where all of the data exists, and that's the same
for a lot of the new forms of robotics.
They're all communicating with a larger brain
that can be shared from one robot to the next.
Drones, bigger than ever before, and yes, in size as well.
Physically larger than last year with new cameras,
4k, and even 8k capabilities to these unmanned aircraft.
And, my favorite color green, although I'm apparently
wearing all blue today, green, the color of money.
A huge focus of CES 2018.
Green, sustainability, eco-efficiency,
and ways to be smarter toward the environment
and your wallet and your overall footprint.
Huge focus of CES 2018, green companies really
aggressively getting to the forefront
of a lot of the podiums and the speaking engagements
that we're gonna see throughout the week,
and of course, not only am I speaking here this week,
but I will be touring, and as this opens to the public,
not only are you right now first inside,
but I will also make sure that I hook you up
with all of the deals along the way.
Every time I see something cool that's on sale
where I can find a link, I will showcase those
deals and bargains right here, but also give
my favorite tech items away for free
to the subscribers of this channel.
