LAS VEGAS, US - The 2022 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) kicked off in Las Vegas on Wednesday amid another surge of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The world's premier tech show, scheduled from Jan. 5 to 7, drew more than 2,200 exhibitors and hundreds of thought leaders.
Attendees and media representatives from 159 countries have registered their participation at CES 2022, according to the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), organizer of the CES.
Digital health is expected to be a hot topic at this year's show as COVID-19 still poses severe threat to the world.
The show will also feature a plethora of exhibitors advancing two of the most compelling technology megatrends of the future, intelligent automation and the evolution of the metaverse, according to the CTA.
The event is held both in person and virtually. Organizers have shortened the in-person event by one day, ending on Friday instead of Saturday.
A digital stream of the event will give access to more than 50 keynote sessions for those choosing not to travel to Las Vegas.
The CTA had taken enhanced health measures in face of the surge of COVID-19 cases. Full vaccination is required for all participants and mask wearing is compulsory indoors.
All badge holders were given a complimentary antigen self-test kit. The CTA encouraged attendees to test less than 24 hours before entering a venue. Enditem
