It just has this really long legacy of people coming with bags, and cell phone cases, and any kind of peripheral that you want to sell - this is the show that is just well known for finding the vendors that are going to take you on.\"23. Various exteriors of IFA halls LEADIN:Robots and 3D printers have been some of the hottest gadgets on show at this year's IFA event in Berlin. STORYLINE:The little BB-8 robot - a popular character from last year's Star Wars instalment and a must-have toy.The robot itself was unveiled by Colorado based toy company Sphero last year.But a controlling system is now being launched at the IFA technology show.There's no more smartphone app. Instead, users must \"feel the force\" with a wristband.When worn, the robot starts following hand and body gesture commands.\"It connects to the robots and the droids through bluetooth low energy. And then it uses a highly calibrated internal IMU (inertial-measurement unit ), or gyro to be simple. And allows people to track their body motion in three dimensions. And so we interpret gestures and turn them in to controls for the robot,\" says Paul Berberian, CEO of Sphero.The \"Force Band\" and the robot will last for about an hour after each charge.The robot and the band will be available at the end of September worldwide. The force band will retail at 80 US dollars with a package with both the band and the robot at 200 US dollars.Internet connected vacuum cleaning robots have been around for a few years, but the price tag has put off a lot of consumers.But it appears they are about to become a bit more affordable.California based company Neato Robotics is launching the Neato D5 robot at IFA. It will go on sale at 399 US dollars and 399 euros when available later this year.The laser navigated, Wifi connected robot can still be controlled by an app and will still clean up the mess left in a household - but it has a lower battery life and fewer features than the earlier, more expensive versions.\"I think we are seeing more and more people taking seriously this new product category. And at the beginning people were sceptical, will this really clean for me? But after you want it and you see the amount of dirt it picks up and the amount of work that it does, it is really making converts of the consumer that adopt it,\" says Giacomo Marini, CEO of Neato.3D printing pen the 3Doodler was an instant celebrity when it launched at IFA in 2014.This year the company is launching a pro version, the 3Doodler Pro.It is heavier, more exact and seems generally to have a higher quality than the previous version.But the main difference is that it can \"draw\" in new materials.\"So the 3Doodler Pro has the ability to use different materials. So we have wood, brass, copper, nylon. And the wood is great because you can just use it for almost anything. Fill in your home floorboards and sand it down,\" says its inventor Maxwell Bogue.The 3Doodler Pro will retail at 249 US dollars when available later in the year.More than 240,000 visitors are expected to visit the IFA electronics show.Around 6,000 companies show their products here, from over 60 countries, according to the IFA organisers.It is Europe's largest consumer electronics show.Getting a booth here is not cheap, but clearly a cost that companies are willing to pay, says Ian Fogg, head of mobile and telecoms team for market research company IHS.\"The big companies clearly believe that trade shows are important or they wouldn't spend the vast amount of marketing budget they need to bring their product launches here and have big stands. So they clearly see there is a return on investment year in, year out,\" he says.\"The smaller companies are here because the bigger companies are. That means the media, it means the industry, it means the retailers, the distributors. They are all here as well. And the smaller companies will want to get that exposure in front of the world's experts.\"3D printing company XZY Printers is using the fair to show its latest range of budget 3D printers.The 'Da Vinci Mini' printer sells for 299 euros (approx. 333 US dollars).A version for children sells for 289 euros (approx. 322 US dollars).\"All of these companies are here because IFA is known as an accessories trade show. It just has this really long legacy of people coming with bags, and cell phone cases, and any kind of peripheral that you want to sell - this is the show that is just well known for finding the vendors that are going to take you on,\" says Nicole Scott, editor of 'Mobilegeeks' technology news website.IFA ran 2 - 7 September 2016.====Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com.
