4. Tech-No-Logic OneCook
This prototype is essentially a robotic personal chef that can rustle up
a whole host of dishes from ingredients that slot into the device in
compartments, almost like printer cartridges
New recipes can be
downloaded and automatically cooked by the robot at the correct
temperature and for the right amount of time.
5. D-Vine
The D-Vine is a wine-tasting machine that can serve a glass of wine at
exactly the right temperature in just a few seconds
Like a
Nespresso-machine of the wine world, the D-Vine serves each glass from a
cartridge-style wine pod that slots into the machine. A rinse cycle
flushes out any residue with water between each glass served
The D-Vine
will start shipping in January priced €499-699 ($550-760) depending on
the model. Note that creator 10-Vins won the "Best Startup" award at

6. OhMiBod Lovelife krush
Smart-vibrator maker OhMiBod presented the Lovelife krush, a gadget
designed to help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which can become
weakened during pregnancy or simply with age
After each exercise,
onboard sensors capture and send information to a smartphone app that

7. Panasonic DMP-UB900
The world's first UHD (Ultra-High Definition) Blu-ray players were
officially launched at this year's CES, including the Panasonic
DMP-UB900.
This is compatible with current Blu-ray discs and DVDs, and
features an onboard upscaling function -- although movies on lower-res
discs won't be rendered with the same razor-sharp level of detail as
films actually encoded in UHD
The UB900 is ‘smart' too, with Wi-Fi
connectivity and an onboard web browser
The Panasonic DMP-UB900 is
slated for release in Europe in spring 2016
8. Parrot Disco
French drone-maker Parrot has presented a new model with a minimalist,
bird-like design, inspired by and at one with nature.
This flying gadget
has an ultra-light build (700g) but still manages to pack in several
sensors and a front-facing video camera.
The drone promises flight
speeds of up to 80km/h (approx. 50 mph)
Price and release dates are yet
to be confirmed
9. Fisher Price Code-A-Pillar
Fisher Price was at CES presenting a robot caterpillar designed to teach
the basics of coding to kids aged three and up.
Each of the bug's eight
segments programs it to move in a different way. When switched on, the
caterpillar runs through all the commands in order to move in a specific
sequence. Kids can modify this sequence by rearranging the order of the
segments, teaching them similar skills to those required for computer
coding
Code-A-Pillar will launch in the USA in summer 2016 priced at
$49.99 (approx. €46)
10. Oculus Rift
This isn't the first time that the Oculus Rift has been previewed, but
the big news from CES 2016 is that it's available to pre-order for $599
in the US or €699 in Europe
The headset is a reference in the field of
virtual reality and features two adjustable AMOLED screens, a microphone
and an integrated audio system with detachable headphones
The Oculus
Rift will start shipping in Q1 2016
