CES 2026 Blog Series: Mind-boggling technology observations

Written by Barry Hutt | Jan 15, 2026 6:33:13 PM

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing a short series of observations from CES 2026 across three themes:

🤖 Robots are becoming physically capable and operational
👓 Wearables are becoming invisible interfaces
🧠 AI is becoming embedded everywhere — but operational maturity is lagging

What struck me most wasn’t any single technology — it was how fast the boundary between science fiction and real engineering has collapsed.

The next decade won’t be defined by who builds the flashiest demos. It will be defined by who builds the strongest data foundations, validation pipelines, and operational discipline to scale these systems safely and reliably.

I’ll be publishing each post over the coming weeks and sharing real examples from the show floor.

Stay tuned.
