After its recent celebration, let’s take a look at CES 2025 (Consumer Electronics Show), the world’s largest technology trade show. We are going to take a look at some of the main technological trends for 2025, taking into account the products presented at the show. They are not all there are, but they are all there are. We have chosen 10 trends for 2025 and have arranged them randomly, i.e. without ranking them in importance.
1. AI: the trendy acronym. Artificial intelligence is beginning to be applied to almost every field. Nvidia presented Project DIGITS a supercomputer designed to work with AI, which can be purchased for 3,000 dollars.
2. Robotics: AI is an essential tool for the advent of humanoid robots, such as the Unitree G1. Unitree G1 which has a starting price of US$ 16,000.
3. Healthcare: AI-based diagnostics, remote monitoring, anti-aging medicine, and technologies to improve mental health are some of the trends in the healthcare field.
4. Smart home: household devices are increasingly connected, know our tastes and anticipate our needs. Thus, the Saros Z70 Roborock’s vacuum cleaner even has a robotic arm to leave your home clean as a whistle.
5. Mobility: remember the scene in Intestellar where the combine harvester operates autonomously? John Deere the agricultural equipment manufacturer, already has autonomous models that operate without human interaction. The driverless car is moving forward and, more than the technology, the most complicated thing is to adapt the current legislation to a reality in which the car will not even have a steering wheel.
6. Screens: artist Alberto García-Alix reminds us that we will die looking at them. We live surrounded by screens, from the tiny one of a smartwatch to the gigantic ones in stadiums. In the TV sector, progress continues and home devices with 100-inch screens are becoming increasingly popular.
7. Sustainability: optimizing energy, using renewable energies, reducing and treating waste, increasing the useful life of products, using environmentally friendly materials, precision agriculture. These and other objectives can be achieved thanks to technology.
8. Quantum computing: this is a field that has yet to be developed but, little by little, some projects are materializing. One of the hottest topics is the integration of quantum computing with AI.
9. Human-technology interface: the interaction between the human being and the computer is becoming increasingly close. Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) continue to advance. The company Neuralink announced that three people have already received implants in their brains.
10. Democratization of technology: the aim is to make it more accessible and inclusive for all, especially with regard to education. In this respect, Open-Source initiatives are welcome.
