MissingRemote.com Podcast Episode 49 - CES Follup Part 2 w/ Andrew too - Geekinated

January 21, 2015

CES was so big we just can’t stop talking about it, and Andrew (@babgvant) was excited too so he joined us too. We had a little audio trouble starting off, be we delayed it and brought you the best show. Andrew has been hard at work posting follow up stories for the items we visited at #CES2015. OLED and Audio were some of the stuff Andrew was impressed by at CES. Smart Home was huge this year at CES and they had some great stuff and some not so great stuff. 9 volt smart battery with wifi and sound detection was pretty cool. Why do we have some many protocol and standards we discuss when they join forces they have much better products. Internet of Things was the theme at CES this year. We are really excited about the new NAS that are coming out from many companies and we will talk about them more on the show. Earthquake Audio was great at CES and John was like a little school girl at the show. WiSA audio is growing and with products launching it will be nice to see the products in the stores.

SHOW NOTES:


 


CES followup from site articles


Location change within Kyle’s house causes all kinds of fun tech issues. – and Kyle takes the brunt of it. What a week for Andrew to join!


OLED and Audio impresses Andrew


Smart Home indeed was bigger this year


What failed…things that weren’t ready for CES or priced too high such as this “smart†switch


9 volt battery with wifi and sound detection. Neat!


Protocols and standards – are there too many? How do things work together?


Internet of things – seemed to annoy John – and by the #CES2015 twitter feed it annoyed alot of people.


NAS – finally getting a good balance of CPU performance without being a power hog


Earthquake audio  – cool built-in sub-woofers – http://www.earthquakesound.com/


WiSA system we want to see it in the wild
