I used to go to the CES in Chicago every June . If you are into tech they are a blast.
By the time I was into it, I had already left Chicago. DARN!
I went to CES in both Las Vegas and Chicago (they had both winter and summer shows then) every year from about 1981 through 1990. I design exhibits and used to do a lot of tradeshow booths. We supervised the set up and dismantle. I worked on Sanyo, Fisher, and Samsung, plus many smaller firms too. I saw lots of future tech like CD players and HD televisions before they hit the stores. Lots of fun both in the convention centers and out on the town.
The CX-1 follows you around at speeds of up to 7mph. It has a built-in ‘eye’ which maps the owner’s face.
Then one day they hunt you down on orders from Skynet...
