We’re about to ring in the new year very soon, but we all know what’s in store for the very first week in January. In the tech landscape, it’s when companies big and small all show up for the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to show off what neat products and services they’ve been working on. Here at SPY.com, we’re all about helping you to discover products that have an impactful effect on your lives, so we do the research to uncover them all. You know there’s going to be a ton of tech-related goodies for CES 2022.
Even though the show’s attendance has been scaled back due to the spike of COVID-19 related surges, the CES Innovation Awards have been handed out already to devices that have earned outstanding design and engineering in consumer technology. These gadgets are undoubtedly unique, and at times, often help to establish trends that spread broadly into other categories.
We’re excited for all the happenings and announcements on tap for CES 2022, but here is the coolest new tech we’re excited to check out at the upcoming show.
Whill Model F Foldable Personal EV
REIMAGINED MODERN WHEELCHAIR
The modern wheelchair is in desperate need of a modern makeover, so it’s a bit surprising to know that there have been slow changes to its design and functionality. The Whill Model F is the reimagined wheelchair we’ve been waiting for, but more importantly, it’s being penned as a foldable personal vehicle for anyone. Whether you’ve been injured, have a disability, or find difficulty with mobility in general, the Whill Model F design allows you to get around with more freedom. What’s really notable is its lightweight and foldable, modern design that you can quickly store in vehicles.

RainStick Shower
RECYCLING WATER TO SAVE THE PLANET
Most people don’t realize the amount of water wasted for daily showers. The number becomes even more concerning when you add up all the showers in a household, which is why the RainStick Shower is addressing the issue. We’ve heard about many other smart showers that do all sorts of things, but the RainStick Shower is different because it’s purported to save 80% water and up to 80% energy. This Wi-Fi-connected shower system recycles the water by taking what goes into the drain, filters it through a 3-stage process that removes large hair and debris, and even uses UV-LED light to eliminate bacteria and viruses.

Bona BV351AA Robot Vacuum Cleaner
We know robot vacuums can sweep and mop floors no problem, but the Bona BV351AA Robot Vacuum does one thing in particular that no other robot vac can do at the moment — sanitize floors using UV (ultraviolet) light. This means that floors will effectively be covered in fewer microbes and other germs unseen to the eye. Still, we’re curious to see how well this robot vacuum can avoid obstacles as well with its A.I. (artificial intelligence) recognition and TOF (time of flight) technology. When floors need to be squeaky clean, the Bona BV351AA Robot Vacuum certainly positions itself to do more than the average bot.

Starcase
PERSONALIZED THROUGH LEDS
Big-ticket items such as laptops, TVs, and headphones are certainly at the top of the list for many during CES 2022, but it doesn’t hurt sharing about the smaller items as well. Case in point, the personalized case for your smartphone from Starcase. With its modular design available for many smartphones, the Starcase allows you to create cool effects and designs with its removable LED panel. You can even set custom light effects for different notifications, such as texts, calls, and other third-party apps. And, of course, it’s a stylish case that lights up.

TCL X9 8K OD Zero Mini-LED TV
TCL is known for its affordable line of TVs, but the one we’re excited about most for CES 2022 is the TCL X9 8K OD Zero Mini-LED TV. Indeed, some of the specs will make anyone lust over this next-generation TV, like the 8K resolution and support of Google TV. However, you will marvel in awe over its ultra-thin and minimalist design. Don’t let its razor-thin design fool you either — it packs a punch in the audio department with its Onkyo-tuned drivers and support for Dolby Atmos 3D audio processing.

V Board
TURN ANY SCREEN INTO A TOUCHSCREEN
If you’ve ever had to prepare a presentation in front of co-workers, it would be helpful if you could somehow instantly make edits or highlight something in your presentation — right on the fly. That’s why we’re excited about the V Board, which aims to reimagine the whiteboard by converting any display into a touchscreen. It’s broken into three components: a camera that emits and captures infrared light, pen, and software. The V Board system effectively can turn any monitor, whether it’s the external monitor connected to your laptop or something you’re streaming to a large television, into an interactive display where you can make notations and edits.

Home-Cera mini dryer
A DRYER FOR APARTMENT LIVING
Anyone living in a tiny apartment appreciates how available real-estate is rare, which is why most heavy duty appliances are nowhere to be found. The Home-Cera mini dryer was made for apartment living because of its compact and lightweight design. In addition to drying your clothes, it also features UV sterilization, triple dust filter, and stainless-steel Tub to ensure they’re perfectly clean and ready to be worn right out of the dryer.

Oview Multi respiratory health system
SWISS ARMY KNIFE OF HEALTH TECH
This piece of health tech is certainly intriguing with its modular design. The Oview Multi respiratory health system is essentially one main component that connects to various add-ons to enable it to perform functions such as a nebulizer, thermometer, stethoscope, otoscope, and much more. With its multi-functional aspect, there’s no denying that it’ll raise a few eyebrows during CES 2022 if it indeed performs as it’s intended.

ScreenCast USB-C Wireless Display HDMI Extender
Streaming content from your computing or mobile device isn’t always the easiest. Yes, you use a steaming device, like a Google Chromecast or Amazon Fire Stick, to do exactly that, but the majority of them require lengthy setups that include connecting them to a wireless network. This company called j5create, wants to streamline the process with its ScreenCast USB-C Wireless Display HDMI Extender. It’s a dongle that allows you to stream content from your device to any HDMI enabled screen without the need of a Wi-Fi network. Plug it in and start streaming, it’s that easy!
