Here are the top themes at the 2014 Consumer Electronics show
* Wearables: From connected socks and bras to baby clothing, wearable technology with the ability to transform computing was an overriding theme at the huge electronics fair.
* The Internet of Things. Embedded technology
* Intuitive computing: Technology firms want to get rid of the mouse and touchpad. New computer and gaming hardware at the show was imbued with software that recognizes gesture, voice and even eye movements as people are freed to interact with devices naturally instead of having to click on icons or use touchscreens
The rest were
TVs, smart cars, smart homes and smartphones
Robotics, drones and 3D printing
