Summary

The Consumer Electronic Show (CES 2017); Las Vegas, attracts over 150,000 people and has over 1,000 vendors. I got to see different types of drones; drones that could go underwater; a gigantic drone by e-Hang that a person can sit in; Pocket Drones (Dobby Drone) that fit in your pocket.

Many drones now have 4k cameras, and some even have infrared cameras!
There even was a drone counterveillance and interception system.
Meanwhile, virtual reality and augmented reality demos were amazing – NASA scientists are using VR to place themselves on the surface of Mars and direct the rover there to sample certain rocks, or move in a certain direction to explore.
OLED TV displays are becoming as thin as a picture frame or two smartphones stacked together.

So in the TV world there's a new type of TV called O-L-E-D, beautiful picture, you know, just like 4K and all those other technologies.

0:59.7

But these TV is are really thin.

1:01.5

They're about the width of two cell phones, maybe a little bit less.
