The annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is on in Las Vegas, and this article (as the title suggests) highlights some of the innovations with an impact on education. Because I like to play spoiler with listicles, here's the list:
- the DAQRI Smart Helmet, an augmented and mixed reality interface
- Kodak Super 8 digital video camera
- Klaxoon software-as-a-service learning platform
- Samsung Galaxy TabPro S 2-in-1 tablet
- Lenovo AirClass interactive virtual classroom
- ASUS C202 Chromebook
- Panasonic's prototype rug speakers
- Hanvon Pentech pen that works with all-in-one touchscreen TVs
- XYZ STEAM, an online curriculum exchange program
- XYZmaker, a 3D modeling app
To me this list is a mixture of meh and wow, mostly meh. But the Klaxoon looks like a big step forward ("Based on your content, you can propose simple, playful and effective activities: quizzes, surveys, challenges, brainstorming activities, live messaging..."), and the DAORI smart helmet might catch on as well.
