CES 2021 Recap: Trends & Tech Highlights
CES 2021 has wrapped up and brought us an all-new digital experience in exhibition visiting. It also revealed the latest technologies that are occupying the consumer electronics landscape and some big tech development trends to watch. According to Jim Chung, Deputy General Director of ITRI’s Industry, Science and Technology International Strategy Center, innovations that address the post-pandemic demands for the New Normal hit the mainstream at this year’s CES. “We found innovators put strong focus on disinfection, intelligence and robotics, with a variety of solutions developed for individual, home, city and infrastructure applications,” he stated (see the figure below).

ITRI was pleased to join this grand event and showcase twelve of its tech innovations in a digital format. Its first-ever virtual pavilion, for example, was launched for two months to welcome visitors from all over the world. We were also glad to hold one-on-one meetings with global partners, new and old, to explore new opportunities and possible collaboration.
