We walk through CES so you don't have to. Video shot/edited by Nathan Fitch. (video link)
LAS VEGAS—Is CES the world's largest trade show? To this author, it certainly felt like it. In my past life as a scientist, I used to attend massive scientific and medical conferences like the American Heart Association's annual meeting, and in recent years, I've been going to the major auto shows. But the monster that takes over Sin City for the first week in January each year dwarfs all of those by at least an order of magnitude (attendance was apparently capped at 176,000). We put together this short video to give you just a tiny flavor of the event.
CES is spread out over the Las Vegas Convention Center and several of the larger hotels, and its purview runs the gamut from laptops and computer bits to TVs, home appliances, drones, toys, and in recent years, cars (which explains my presence at the show). The consequence of all that is that you'd better be prepared to fight your way through a gigantic scrum of humanity in to get where you need to go, and about 80 percent of the show could well be completely irrelevant to your interests.
