Representatives from the French company Parrot demonstrate a prototype of their new Disco drone
A vinyl revival, high-tech fitness gadgets, and the Internet of Things are three of the big themes of this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
The event has been running in Las Vegas for nearly 50 years, but its importance has dwindled in recent years.
However, there are still a host of weird and wonderful gadgets on offer. Here is our round-up.
:: Panasonic has unveiled new Technics turntables and headphones at its show, meanwhile Sony has showcased its PS-HX500 which spins vinyl and can also digitise LPs.
:: A treadmill that plays a personalised music soundtrack based on the speed the user is running at has been announced by Technogym.
Spotify already has a similar feature on its app, but Technogym says it's the first to implement the idea in a treadmill.
:: Another firm, iFit, has shown off a treadmill with a 60-inch curved screen which it says can create the sensation of running in exotic locations.
:: Struggling to wake up in the morning? Sensorwake has revealed an olfactory alarm clock, which emits scents such as coffee to help you wake up.
:: Blink has announced an electronic skateboard which is controlled by a small handheld device, and can travel up to 12mph.
It is a follow up product to last year's RocketSkates.
:: A company called Quanergy has announced a system consisting of radar and camera sensors that will help cars see their surroundings and decide what action to take.
The system - marketed as affordable, with a price tag of around $1,000 (£682) - could bring down the cost of making a vehicle autonomous.
:: A prototype cricket bat by Zepp measures speed, angle, swing and power and could help you to improve your performance.
It can even recreate your swing in 3D so you can analyse it later.
:: Samsung has a unveiled a fridge with a 21-inch high-definition touchscreen which can be used to look at the food inside using a camera. Alternatively, you can just open the door.
:: Fitbit unveiled a colour smartwatch to go head-to-head with the Apple Watch. But shares plunged following the announcement.
:: LG has a new line of smartphones called the K series, a budget phone which it says looks and feels much more expensive.
It has also released a television which is as thin as four stacked credit cards.
:: Smart shoes by the Digitsole company contain a toe-warming system and built-in torch, but come with a hefty £300 price tag.
