Developments in robotics, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered insights and automation are helping consumers optimise the nuanced functionality increasingly embedded in the electronics that surround and service us. As a result, at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES; Las Vegas, January 6-9) home electronics felt personal, tailored around individual accessibility needs, wellness goals and home care challenges.
A New Era for Robotic Home Assistants
Homes as Healthcare
The Animal Friendly Home
‘Physical AI’ – technology that perceives, reasons and physically responds in the real world and in real time – was this year’s buzzword. Brands are placing their bets on all-in-one home helpers that autonomously make decisions and execute tasks on our behalf in the form of humanoid robots and discrete smart devices.

Today’s home not only tracks health – it also helps to enhance it, offering an engineered environment where lighting, temperature and air quality are constantly optimised. Appliances are designed for enhanced wellness, responding to the desire for calm and rest as well as consumer anxieties surrounding toxicity in the domestic environment.
Pet tech is a significant growth area in the global pet care market, which is projected to reach $428bn by 2032 (Fortune Business Insights, 2025). Pet parents are investing in technologies that deliver quality remote pet care and enhance animal wellbeing.
