    Two Of the Most Off-Beat Gadgets I Learned About At CES 2022.

    Samsung has been very focused on being "green". This is the latest in their TV remotes. 

    It's the SAMSUNG ECO REMOTE - Avail w/ some Samsung TV's. At CES last year Samsung introduced the Eco Remote with a solar panel that charges the remote with room lighting. A new model coming can also charge the remove via energy picked up wirelessly from devices like the TV or router! I have no idea how much energy your router or TV puts out, but it would be great to get some use of it. Will be available on certain new high end Samsung TV's.

    Not Sure If This Will Ever Make It To Market, But It's Very Interesting:

      

     

    Want to attract a little attention on the road? Or change the way your car looks in seconds? That might be possible in the future.

     

    The BMW iX Flow Concept Car.

     

    This BMW iX Flow concept car can vary the shade of color any time using e-ink technology! In summer a white surface can reflect sunlight and in cooler weather a dark color will help the car absorb more warmth from the sun. Available maybe far in the future. Possible uses I can see. Put your logo on the car when you're on a business trip. Make rude comments to drivers that annoy you.
