The world’s largest technology event, Consumer Electronics Show 2026, is set to begin on January 6 in Las Vegas, USA. CES 2026 is expected to clearly signal where global technology is headed next, with artificial intelligence, robotics, and health technology taking centre stage. This year, AI is no longer just a feature—it has become the backbone of almost every product, platform, and ecosystem on display.

Tech giants such as Nvidia, AMD, Samsung, and LG are shaping the technology narrative for 2026. Key discussions will revolve around health tech, mobility, robotics, and content creation.

AI everywhere: the core of CES 2026
Artificial intelligence dominates almost every category at CES 2026. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and AMD CEO Lisa Su have both described AI as the foundation of future productivity and innovation. Companies like Lenovo are showcasing their push to bring AI directly to devices, not just the cloud.

At CES 2026, AI is no longer an add-on. Whether it is smart homes, personal computers, or enterprise systems, AI is forming complete ecosystems that learn, adapt, and automate.

Robotics and humanoids take centre stage
Robotics has emerged as one of the biggest attractions at CES this year. LG has showcased its domestic robot CLOiD, while Hyundai is highlighting its advances in manufacturing and industrial robotics.

Humanoid robots are drawing both excitement and skepticism. According to the Consumer Technology Association, humanoid robots could become more common later in this decade, though their real-world applications are still at an early stage.

Health, wearables, and longevity tech
Health technology is another major focus at CES 2026. Wearable devices designed for different parts of the body are being introduced, alongside AI-powered apps aimed at disease prevention and lifestyle-based treatment. CTA believes technology is rapidly filling critical gaps in healthcare systems worldwide.
