The Consumer Technology Association (CTA) today announced that CES Asia 2018 will highlight advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) as a new dedicated product category on the show floor, building on the successful demonstration of AI applications across the latest consumer tech products showcased at CES earlier this year.

With China setting the pace to become a global innovation leader in AI, CES Asia will bring together the biggest players shaping the future of artificial intelligence.

“Artificial intelligence is one of those exciting technologies that will become ubiquitous in the next decade as it becomes more deeply embedded in the products that we use day in and day out to make our lives better, ” said John T. Kelley, senior director, international programs and show director, CES Asia. “AI is already being incorporated in everyday consumer technology products that provide practical benefits, including cars, smart homes, robotics, health and wellness devices and home security. China is leading the way in AI, embracing innovation and setting global standards and it will be front and center during CES Asia 2018!”

More, ARM Accelerator and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology will bring several cutting-edge companies to CES Asia.
