CES tends to be the home of the most cutting-edge technology, from new streaming devices and platformsnew 8K smart televisions, and of course the newest developments in video games and computer technology. While we already expect that computer and graphics card technology will be dominated by AMD this year, with AMD already powering the next generation Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X, AMD is also promising to push the envelope with Ryzen this year too.

However, CES is also home to the unveiling of the more creative - some downright weird- innovations in technology. These tend to handle important, non-gaming technologies, such as health instruments or smart-home innovations that don't involve your television. And here are just 5 of them that we're excited to see this coming CES.
