8K televisions

8K电视

The show is always a favorite place for companies to release their latest televisions (TVs). This year was no different. Several manufactures released large models with 8K, which is considered the highest quality standard. Samsung showed off a new 8K version that brings the picture right to the edge of the TV.

这个展览会一直是各公司最爱的发布最新电视的场所。今年也是如此。多家制造商发布了大型8K电视，这被认为是最高清的画质。三星展示了一款采用无边设计的新型8K电视。

A TV that acts like a phone

像电话一样的电视

Samsung also introduced a TV that can be used to watch video designed for a smartphone. The Sero TV does this by turning itself from the normal TV position to an upright position that looks like the shape of a phone. The TV can connect to mobile devices to play video directly from the phone.

三星还推出了一款新电视，可用来观看专为智能手机设计的视频。Sero TV通过将屏幕从正常的电视位置旋转为与手机形状类似的垂直位置来实现这一目的。这款电视可以与移动设备相连接，直接播放手机里的视频。

The TV is already for sale in South Korea for about $1,600. The company says it is designed to appeal to "the mobile generation." Samsung says it plans to expand Sero's availability "to several global markets in 2020."

该电视已在韩国上市，售价约为1600美元。三星公司表示，这款电视旨在吸引“移动一代”。三星表示，公司计划2020年将Sero TV的销售扩大到全球多个市场。

Smart waste can

智能垃圾桶

A company called TOWNEW presented a waste can designed for the home that does a lot of the dirty work on its own. When the can is full, the user touches a button to activate¹ the machine's smart abilities. The device then completely seals the waste bag inside and puts a new one in place, all by itself. The can then raises its top so the user can pick up and throw away the bag.

TOWNEW公司展出了一款可自行处理大量脏活的家用智能垃圾桶。垃圾桶满了之后，用户可触摸按钮以启动智能功能。随后，该设备会完全密封垃圾桶的垃圾袋，并换上新垃圾袋，这一切都由这个设备自行完成。随后，垃圾桶顶部会升起，以方便用户拿起垃圾袋并扔掉。

Snore stopping pillow

停止打鼾枕头

People who snore when they sleep might be helped by the "Motion Pillow." This smart pillow is designed to collect information about the sleeper's head position and breathing during the night. The system then uses this data to change the shape of the pillow, with the help of built-in air bags. The idea is that by changing the pillow, the sleeper's head will move just enough to improve airflow through the nose and reduce snoring.

Motion Pillow也许可以帮助睡觉时打鼾的人。这款智能枕头旨在夜间收集睡眠者的头部位置和呼吸情况等信息。随后，在内置安全气囊的帮助下，这一系统用这些信息来改变枕头的形状。想法是，通过改变枕头，睡眠者的头部会移动到合适位置，得以改善通过鼻腔的气流并减少打鼾。

A sitting Segway

赛格威坐式平衡车

Segway people movers have been around for years, but the company used CES to announce its new S-Pod model. The new transporting "pod" looks like a small chair with wheels. The company says its new model is designed to be used in enclosed areas such as airports, amusement parks and shopping malls.

赛格威电动车已经存在很多年了，而今年，该公司借助消费电子展这一平台推出了新款S-Pod平衡车。这一新款运输“舱”看上去像是带有轮子的小椅子。赛格威公司表示，其新型平衡车旨在机场、游乐园和购物中心等封闭场所使用。

Phone charger and car battery saver

AI to block the sun

阻挡阳光的人工智能设备

Technology company Bosch introduced several new products at CES, including its new Virtual Visor for cars. The Virtual Visor is designed to replace the traditional vehicle sun visor. The company says the system uses artificial intelligence to find the exact position of the driver's eyes. It then darkens only a small part of the car's windshield through which the sun could affect the driver's sight.

科技公司博世在消费电子费上推出了多款新产品，包括用于汽车的新型虚拟遮阳板。这款虚拟遮阳板旨在取代传统的汽车遮阳板。博世公司表示，这一系统用人工智能来找到驾驶员眼睛的准确位置。之后，系统只会调暗影响司机视线的那部分汽车挡风玻璃。

Invisible car hood³

隐形引擎盖

Automobile⁴ industry company Continental⁵ showed off a new technology that seems to make the front end of a vehicle disappear. Continental says the technology, called "Transparent⁶ Hood," aims to make driving safer and easier. Cameras provide video of the area underneath⁷ the vehicle, permitting the driver to see objects and road conditions that might present danger.

汽车工业公司大陆集团展示了似乎以令汽车前端消失的新技术。大陆集团表示，这项技术名为“透明引擎盖”，旨在令驾驶更加安全和便捷。摄像头会提供车辆下方区域的视频，使驾驶员能看到可能存在危险的物体和道路状况。

Virtual keyboard

虚拟键盘

Samsung provided a first look at a technology that can turn just about any surface into a device keyboard. The virtual keyboard is called "SelfieType." The system uses a device's camera to analyze⁸ finger movements as they "type" on a flat surface and shows the results on the phone. Samsung says the virtual keyboard does not require any other equipment besides a mobile device. The technology is still being tested.

三星首先推出可将任何表面变成设备键盘的技术。这款虚拟键盘名为SelfieType。该系统使用设备摄像头来分析手指在平面上“打字”的动作，然后将结果显示在手机上。三星表示，除移动设备外，虚拟键盘不需要其他任何设备。目前这项技术仍在测试中。

Wearable air purifier

可穿戴空气净化器

A company called Aō Air introduced a wearable air purifier. The device is designed to be a high-tech⁹ face covering to block pollution. The purifier pulls air through a filtration system and then uses fans to create a small area of clean air at the front of the device. The company says the design permits the air to be purified -- without the need for a solid seal.

Aō Air公司推出了可穿戴空气净化器。这一设备被设计为可阻止污染的高科技面罩。净化器使空气通过过滤系统，然后用风扇在设备前部产生小部分清洁空气。该公司表示，这一设备使空气无需实体密封便可得到净化。

Toilet paper robot

卫生纸机器人

And finally, personal products company Procter & Gamble presented a robot that can serve people as they use the toilet.
