A couple of things that I think people will recognise is wearable technology,\" she says.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I'm also interested in all of the curved devices that I'm seeing here, curved TVs, curved phones.\"\u003cbr/\u003eUnlike the 3-D TV trend, which quickly eroded into a tech fad in recent years, analysts say Ultra HD may actually catch on. \u003cbr/\u003eWith screens that house four times more pixels than regular HD TVs, Ultra HD is considered to be a simple enough upgrade to gain widespread adoption in the next few years. \u003cbr/\u003eLenovo is unveiling an update to its tabletop-sized tablet, the Horizon.\u003cbr/\u003eThe \"Horizon 2\" offers an improved screen and a larger battery. \u003cbr/\u003eIt has pumped up processing power, as well as enhanced graphics.\u003cbr/\u003e\"We've made it thinner, we've made it lighter, we've also increased the resolution on the panel. We're now going up to a quad HD 2560 x 1440 panel,\" says Cassidy Lammers from Lenovo, as she demonstrates the technology.  \u003cbr/\u003eThe tablet offers some unique features for smartphone users, enabling Android users to pair with and sync data between the two devices. \u003cbr/\u003e\"We've added is the ability to pair a mobile phone via an Android app that sets straight on the system, so once it sits on the system, the system is going to scan the screen, find the exact location of the phone and now it's going to share all of my data,\" says Lammers.\u003cbr/\u003eThis technology runs a full version of Windows 8.1, but it also can be tilted up to function like a desktop computer. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Lenovo \"Horizon 2\" is expected to go on sale from June, with prices starting at 999 US dollars for the 1920 x 1080 panel, and 1,199 US dollars for the 2560 x 1440 panel.\u003cbr/\u003eWearable technology is everywhere at CES this year - from virtual reality headsets, to exercise bands and health monitors.\u003cbr/\u003eZachary Jean Paradis, an analyst at Innovation Strategy, says it's the stuff of the future - and it's here to stay. \u003cbr/\u003e\"The thing is as the divide that we have, that has been in place between the physical and digital world continues to collapse. Things like wearables are perhaps the key to unlocking those worlds mending together completely,\" he says.\u003cbr/\u003eCES is not just for media devices. If you love skateboarding, but don't always have the energy - then this could be right up your street.\u003cbr/\u003eThe world's lightest electric longboard has been unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. \u003cbr/\u003eTipping the scales at just under 14 pounds (6.35 kilograms), the E-Go Cruiser will zoom you to your destination. \u003cbr/\u003e\"What we have here is the E-Go-cruiser which is the world's lightest electric longboard. So it's a skateboard built with electric propulsion system in it so that you can ride up to 18 miles on a single charge,\" says Yuneec Technology's Shan Williams.\u003cbr/\u003eIt has two to three hours of battery power, and takes about the same time to charge it back up. \u003cbr/\u003eThe longboard is priced at 699 US dollars.\u003cbr/\u003eWhile smartphones have been grabbing headlines in recent years, smartphone cases have lagged behind. \u003cbr/\u003eBut a new shell called the \"Yellow Jacket\" is, quite literally, creating quite a buzz. \u003cbr/\u003eNot for how it protects the phone, but how it's been designed to protect the user.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Yellow Jacket\" has a built-in stun gun. \u003cbr/\u003eIf the thought of singing Karaoke strikes fear into your soul, the people at Singtrix have a treat for you. \u003cbr/\u003eSingtrix is a vocal processing unit that allows you to sing with a number of effects, including voices.\u003cbr/\u003e\"It's got over 350 different sounds so you can sound like a robot,\" says founder Erik Berkowitz. \u003cbr/\u003eOr \"you can sound like Barry White\" he adds. \u003cbr/\u003eThe International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) runs 7 to 10 January 2014.\u003cbr/\u003eAround 3,200 exhibitors were set to attend this year's event. \u003cbr/\u003eLas Vegas, Nevada - 7 January 2014\u003cbr/\u003e1.

If I were to take it off there's actually a hinge on the back so it allows it to raise all the way up into desktop mode and you can use a keyboard and a mouse and it's actually running Windows 8.1 underneath it. So the things that we've done is we've made it thinner, we've made it lighter, we've also increased the resolution on the panel. We're now going up to a quad HD 2560 x 1440 panel. We've also added a lot more games so before we had some favourites like air hockey and other games from Ubisoft and EA, we've now added up to 18 games and plus there's an app store so you can get tonnes more content.  We also have still the ability to have your music, your videos and your photos available to share, but one thing we've changed is now you can edit your photos right here on the system. There's a little pencil here, you click it, you make any effects you want, you hit save and it saves it right back to your system. One more thing we've added is the ability to pair a mobile phone via an Android app that sets straight on the system, so once it sits on the system, the system is going to scan the screen, find the exact location of the phone and now it's going to share all of my data.\"\u003cbr/\u003e9.
