Is that your official title at intel . Yes. Great title. Thank you. What are you displaying this year thats new and then i want to talk about the contest youre having. Really a lot of things here at c. E. S. Were showing a lot of our wearable devices that came out in 2014. A lot were announced in partnership last year. Were also show casing a lot of the products that came out of the wearable challenge we also announced last year. The grand prize winner won 500,000 for their project. This was a wearable contest. A wearable contest. They had to usain intel product. Yes. Okay. What was the winner . What was the actual a flying drone. You wear it on your wrist and then when you want to take a picture it flies off your wrist and takes a picture and comes back to you bike a boomerang. Its a really cool product. All of the products everyone came up with were amazing. We were shocked with what they came up with. Is that something intel is going to put on the market or get on the market somehow . We continue to support the make it wearable challenge finalists in their projects. It has an intel edison processor inside. So at the keynote yesterday our c. E. O. Had them on stage. Andrea raines, this years contest, what do you have this year . The finalists from the past year, we announced well do a competition again this coming year. Andrea raines, you have some inventor finalists here. Whos here . So we have finalists in the make it wearable challenge that we announced last year at c. E. S. And the challenge culminated in october this last year. These are semifinalists all over the world, young scientists. All over the world. All ages. We had over a thousand applicants and narrowed it down to 10 finalists that we thought were the most interesting products. They show cased them in october in san francisco. A panel of judges, everyone from the c. E. O. Of best buy to venus williams. What did the finalist win . The top finalist won 500,000 from intel. What about the semifinalist . The second place winner won 200,000. Lets talk to some of the finalists. Great. And the winner of the intel wearable project. What do you do with nicsi . I get people excited about our products which is really easy in a place like this. How does this work . We heard a little bit about what it is but how does it work . Demonstrate it for us. So its a flying camera that you wear. This is just a prototype. The final product will be more beautiful, taller, and very comfortable to wear. The prototype works. We demonstrated it live last night at the keynote. That was very exciting. What will happen is youll be going through your day and if there is something you want to capture you just take it off your wrist and itll be very simple to take off your wrist and it will expand and it will be as easy as gesturing. You literally just toss it and it is completely autonomous. You dont need to be wearing something. Its smart enough to know the direction you tossed it and the pressure of your toss so if its a gentle toss itll stay pretty close. If you throw it, itll go farther away. It will compose a photo, take a photo, and come back. Completely autonomously. Does it shoot video . Short bursts of video. Itll do a photo, a burst of photos, or a short video. Who came up with the idea . The founders a couple. He is a physicistt and they missed their daughters first steps and thought why isnt there something that would have allowed us to capture this moment . They have been developing this product ever since. So demonstrate it down here on the computer on the laptop. What are we seeing . The product actually being used . Youre seeing our idea of how the product will be used. So she is throwing the drone at this point. So a couple this one is demonstrating the boomerang mode where you would toss it out and it would it uses navigation so it knows where it came from and will come back to that point on its own. So he throws it out. And it comes back to him at some point. Yes. It has a camera so it has it knows. Now 500,000 awarded from intel, correct . Yes. And when will this product be on the market . Absolutely as soon as we can get it on the market. But we just won the contest two months ago and we spent that time in developing this working prototype which we now have. And the next step is to refine it and make it more beautiful, very comfortable to wear. And continue to make it very organic. Where is nixie based . In los altos california. We have team members all over the place and look to expand our team. The winner of the intel wearables contest, nixie. Thank you. Another one of the companies exhibiting here at c. E. S. Is called parrot, based in paris. What does parrot do . How long has it been around . Oh, for 15 years and we are doing products, for five years were doing drones for the consumer market. And the brand new one is the drone you can see back there. Its small, light and safe and secure. And so you have a front camera. Its a 180degree field of view camera. What is great is actually you can take pictures of 180 dgs or you can adjust the video. You can stabilize the video. Its digital stablization. When the drone is still there you move the window, who youre regarding in the sensor, and then you have this with you. You said youre doing this for the consumer market. Yes. What, for people who may like to play video games . I mean that type of person this is not for Business Concerns . No, not for business. Just people who dream of flagg and they like to fly and with the video you can have the video recording of what youre doing just having fun with your friends and family and also we have the sky control. Thats a remote control. So you can have a wifi and go up to two kilometers with that. Two kilometers in the air . Yes. Wow. And you have controls and also you have connections. So its like youre flying and you have a really great experience. Mr. Callou, if you want to download your video that you shot from your drone, does that do that automatically as well . Is there software . In fact you have the video on the drone. So you can either download it over wifi to your tablet or smartphone or you can connect the drone by u. S. B. On your p. C. If you want. What is the price point on some of these drones . For the bundle with the sky controller it is 899. Are they selling well . Yes. Are you selling them here in the u. S. . Yes. Okay. How did you get into this business . How did you get into drone making . Just we were doing in paris we were doing all the devices for the smartphone ks for the phones, all the devices like head phones and we wanted to go to this so okay. We started to do it. This is one of the products made by parrot out of paris. Well, the Parrot Company doesnt only make drones but it makes interconnectivity devices as well. Benjamin is with us now. What is your position i am a product manager. I work on the current range. Okay. Well the product youre holding is one of the c. E. S. Innovation award winners. What is this . Exactly. One of the best awards thrawout the whole c. E. S. Usually you have the features from the car. We designed this to be fully integrated into any car. It has the possibility to get a g. P. S. Navigation, to get digital and analog tuner, to get we improved the integration into the car grabbed the information from the car and bring it to the driver. It has full assistance for driving. So its in the category of interconnectivity and internet of things. Better, more connected, more integrated. Will you demonstrate it for us . Yes. Please follow me. All right. So we also are compliant with apple and Google Android also. So apple users and Android Users can use this. And if youre not on android or apple side if you prefer window not a big deal. We have bluetooth and wifi to be fully connected to your phone. Just keep your phone in your pocket and youll be able to use this. Also the full features so this is the product. This is the product. As you can see, on the apple phone and on the as an example, this system, itself, talks to the phone and grabs all the information from the phone to put it on this. Okay. Or if you want to listen to some music, exactly the same. Just get the information from your music and play it on the unit. So this is built into the car. Everything is built into the car. We have the mode for the android. This grabs all the information from the car as i was saying before to get you a full diagnostic. As an example it can give you a note on the way you brake, on the way you use your gasoline, travel history also. Or if you have a flat tire the system tells you flat tire. How does this unit know that you have a flat tire . How does it sense that . It is a special connector. Actually the idea is the information is from the car. You can say we grab the information throughout the connector and bring it to the driver. And the last thing also is that as i was telling you we are also compliant with android also. Android also is exactly the same way it works the same way. Here is the android. This is the nexus 5. It grabs the same information from the phone and allows you to have navigation from the phone. So you are the one who chooses if you want to choose this application from your phone or if you want to use the onboard navigation system. You are the one to decide what you want to see. Are you able to, perhaps monitor your house thraw this device as well . With the application throughout the mode everything is possible. Not imitation. Email . Email is not so safe for driving. So lets say voice mail. Technically, yes. Everything is possible. Thank you very much. No problem. We are at the c. E. S. International show in las vegas. One of the buzzed about booths is the go pro booth. Joining us now at the booth is kelly lego of gow perot go pro. Its an amazing, small, wearable, multiple camera. Who developed it . It was founded by nick woodman whose the c. E. O. And founder and he thought of this when he was serving in indonesia with the press. It started because he wanted to take pictures of him and his friend surfing and it evolved into this amazing camcorder that you can capture lifes moments. Cameras are kind of old school arent they . With smartphones and everything . Well, cell phones are more reactive. These are more proactive. If you want to plan something youre interested in like actually getting really high quality footage you can plan your shots take great photos and video. Kelly lego, were looking at this very small camera. This is hd. What is the technology . This is the hero four. We have two different models. We have the hero four black which has the ability to shoot at 4k 30. 1080 and 2. 7 k at 50 which is incredible. And this camera is the hero four silver which has 4 k 15 so still amazing quality but it also has an integrated l. C. D. Screen on the back. Now you can actually, the first time you go through the history you can frame up your shot and review your footage directly from the camera. This takes still and video . Yes. How does everything in here get to the tv screen . Well, there are a few different ways. We actually have a go perot app. You can gopro app. You can directly offload and control the contents. You have a gopro studio so if you connect the sd card to your computer you can directly offload it into our software called go pro studio where you can capture it directly and share it to the world. Well, now, here in your display you have a dog wearing a camera and a little kid wearing a camera. Yeah. Go pro is the worlds most versatile camera. We can do anything with it. Strap it to the handle bars of your bike, strap it to the dog. Or you can strap it to your child with a junior chesty. And what is the quality of the video here . We have this camera were shooting some of this display with. How does it compare . With our broadcast camera. Its great. It is pretty comparable. It can shoot 4 k 30 so breathtaking, amazing footage. I go to a local distributer so whether a target or walmart or my favorite momandpop shop. I buy it. I go on the mountain. Oh, man. I want to get great shots. I go and capture this amazing content. I go home. Using pro studio to edit and share it on my social media. Here is the editing software. So jake will be able to give you a little demo. Basically you take your contents directly from your camera and offload it on your computer and edit and trim and convert your clips and then create a comprehensive edit through the easytouse interface. Weve also tried to make it as easy as possible for our users. So weve created go pro studio templates which are preedited templates where you can just drag and drop your footage to directly create and edit. First of all, jake, what is your background before go pro . I was working for a soft ware Company Acquired by go pro in 2011 and part of the acquisition was to help develop editing slaugss for go pro camera users. We spent the last few years making this Studio Software and the latest incarnation. This is it that were looking at here. It looks complicated. Its not. Just a very big screen on the display. So it works easily. We have three sets. We try to make it very easy. There is a tutorial that walks you through what youre supposed to do. Basically here in step one this is where you go through your footage. Take out the parts that you like. If you like a section you add it to the conversion over here and then you convert all of the files into the go pro file. Once youve done that the clips show up over here. Now instead of the long recording you recorded you have just little highlights and parts you actually like. From here you drag it down into the story board in the order that youd like it to play back. So down here you can apply special effects. Weve got instagram style presets and you can just find the clip and this is happening it is not applying it permanently. You can always go back to your original setting. How much video can that little camera that kelly was showing us hold . Shooting at hd resolution at 30 frames per second, with the 32 gigabyte card itll hold about four hours worth of content. You turn on the mode and itll take that down a little bit. If you have a bigger card you can shoot more and one of the higher resolutions it will shorten the amount a little bit but base cli 32 gigabytes, hd. 1080p 30 is four hours. And the editing suite comes with the camera . The suite doesnt come in the box. It is a Free Download at go pro. Com. Anybody can download it. It works with cameras as well as cannon and nikon dslr. We havent tested them all so if you have a camera that shoots in this format you can try the go pro studio. It might work. This might be a question for you or jake. Im not sure. Why wasnt this done before . Why action sport cameras . I think a lot of people wanted to use it but they never found the right parts, they never found the specific when he found it he ran with it. He worked very hard to get it put together and here it is today. Go pro is one of the buzzed about booths here at the c. S. O. International show. Another Foreign Company that is exhibiting here at c. E. S. International in las vegas is huawei out of china. Jack forest is with huawei. What do you do with this company and where are you based . Im based in our plano office which is outside of dallas, texas. And i am a training manager for the u. S. What is huawei . A Multi National corporation that is we are the Third Largest phone manufacturer in the world. We manufacture smartphones, tablets. Thats where were the Third Largest. We also do networks, routers. Were into pretty much everything in the telecommunications worldwide and in that area we are actually number one in this network side of it. And where is huawei based . In china, World Headquarters shanghai, china. Does huawei have products selling in the u. S. Today . Absolutely. Weve been selling in the u. S. For approximately six to six and a half years. In multiple carriers carrying our products. Were slowly adding more. Now can somebody buy a huawei phone in the u. S. Today, cell phone . Absolutely. Okay. How are they selling . We hear so much about samsung and apple. Right. Were doing well. We entered the unlocked market just last year, so we started selling one of our devices on our own website and thats been doing really well. We plan on expanding that this year also. Manufacturing a cell phone anymore, is it profitable . It is. Yes. If you do it the right way. Okay. Lets see some of your phones. This is probably the highlight of the show right now. This is part of our honor line. This is the six plus. You can see its a beautiful screen, five and a half inch full hd screen. It has the longest battery life on the market one of the longest battery lives. It has basically two to two and a half days on one charge which is huge right now. The android operating system . Correct. One very unique feature on this device are the cameras. Cameras. Correct. There are actually three cameras on this device. On the back you can see we have dual eight megapixel cameras along with the dual l. E. D. Flash on there. Ill come back to that. We also have an eight megapixel on the front. So the dual rear cameras are for a very specific purpose. And ill just do a quick demonstration. Im going to take a picture. And then ill show you what the capabilities are. So using those two cameras, it gives you the unique perspective on the image, itself. So if you tap the little Shutter Button right here, it gives you the opportunity to change or refocus the image. So you can refocus whats in the background and then put this out of focus. And you can change it for whatever area youd like to. Not only can you do that you can also change the apperture on it and you can bring that even more out of focus to bring the focus into this area. Or you can lower it down and that keeps everything in balanced focus. So very unique feature along with great filters for the images and then the front camera is unique because it is an eight megapixel, one of the highest right now on the front which gives you full hd selfies or full hd video, skype or Something Like that. Have you been able to are these phones available in at t stores or Verizon Stores . This device . No. This device Just Launched about a week and a half ago. So right now it is only available in china and their expansion plans have not been given to us yet. What kind of expansion plans does huawei have for the u. S. . I cant get into a lot of detail of it but we are definitely moving forward in the u. S. With devices. And our plan is to bring the honor line w
