Computer Electronics Show (CES), one of the world’s biggest tech trade shows, kicks off Wednesday, January 5th in Las Vegas with its first in-person event since the pandemic. The in-person event was cancelled last year and a great privileged to see the trade show come back to life in full force with both digital and in real life (IRL) this year. Below are some head turning Innovations from 2022 CES.
Dell’s Alienware flexible gaming
Alienware, Dell’s gaming hardware division, showed off a gaming setup called Concept Nyx which allows gamers to seamlessly switch from playing a game on a PC in one room to playing on a TV screen in a different room, picking up right where a gamer left off using a single controller. The Aurora R13 is Alienware’s first Cryo-tech enabled desktop and the Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 is Alienware’s highest multi-threaded capacity desktop with overall cooler performance and impressive graphics performance. The system is currently in the prototype stage which rely heavily on edge computing that requires higher bandwidth and fewer lags during gaming.
Samsung Odyssey Ark
Odyssey Ark standout among several monitors announced at CES 2022 by Samsung. The company design this 55-inch curved 4K gaming monitor that you can rotate into a vertical orientation, the largest curved monitor out there — with a 16:9 aspect ratio. Users will be able to rotated and viewed the monitor either horizontally or vertically. Its Odyssey Ark isn’t expected to ship until the second half of this year, giving Samsung plenty of time to deliver some important details.
As of today, we know nothing useful about the display, such as the price, release date, panel technology, or connections.
