From smart LEGO bricks that respond to how kids build to AI-powered pet collars that predict health issues, CES 2026 delivered game-changing innovations for families.
1. LEGO Smart Play System
LEGO introduced one of its biggest innovations in nearly 50 years with the Smart Play system. The Smart Brick contains sensors, LEDs, and speakers that detect movement, color, and proximity to create interactive play experiences.
When paired with Smart Tags and Smart Minifigures, the bricks light up, produce sounds, and respond to how children build and play.
The system launches in March 2026 with Star Wars sets, including a TIE Fighter for $70, an X-Wing for $100, and a Throne Room set for $160. The bricks are wirelessly charged and designed to last for years without requiring screens or apps.
2. Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold
The Galaxy Z TriFold brings a 10-inch screen that folds twice like a pamphlet, making it portable enough to fit in a pocket. The device features a 6.5-inch cover display for quick tasks and unfolds to reveal an expansive screen perfect for family movie nights or homework help.
It includes five cameras, a 200MP main camera, and a 5,600mAh battery with 45W super-fast charging. The phone won Best Overall and Best Mobile Tech at the Best of CES 2026 Awards and is set to launch in the US during the first quarter of 2026.
3. Coro Breastfeeding Monitor
Coro is the first device to accurately measure breast milk intake in real time. The silicone nipple shield features a tiny, non-invasive sensor that measures milk flow to 0.01 milliliters.
The companion app tracks feeding volumes, durations, and patterns for each breast, helping new parents understand their baby's feeding habits. Clinical studies show it can provide peace of mind for families struggling with milk production or latch issues. Coro is FDA 510(k) pending and expected to launch in September 2026.
4. Eufy Video Doorbell S4
The Eufy Video Doorbell S4 features a 3K camera with a 180-degree horizontal and vertical field of view, capturing visitors from head to toe. The AI-powered OmniTrack technology automatically follows and zooms in on people approaching the door.
It includes color night vision, radar-based motion detection, and dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. The doorbell can be powered by a battery, mains power, or an optional solar panel, and it stores videos locally without requiring a subscription. It will be available in late March 2026 for $279.99.
5. Earflo Sippy Cup
Earflo won the Best of Innovation award in Digital Health at CES 2026 for its sippy cup-shaped medical device that treats negative middle ear pressure in children as young as two.
The device disguises therapy as everyday drinking through a game-based companion app. Clinical trials showed that Earflo improved hearing and prevented ear tube surgery in over 86% of cases within four weeks. The device is FDA 510(k) pending and will exhibit at CES from January 6-9, 2026.
6. Samsung Movingstyle M7
The Samsung Movingstyle M7 is a 32-inch wireless 4K touchscreen that moves throughout the home on a rolling stand or can be carried with its built-in handle and kickstand.
The device functions as both a TV and a monitor, with a built-in battery supporting up to three hours on a single charge. It supports touch input, the SolarCell remote, voice control through Bixby, and gesture controls through a Galaxy Watch. The Movingstyle offers the portability of a mobile device combined with the viewing experience of a TV.
7. SATELLAI Collar Go
The SATELLAI Collar Go won CNET's Best of CES award for pet tech thanks to its AI-powered health-monitoring system. The collar features a 15-day battery life, IP68 waterproof rating, and real-time GPS tracking globally.
The Petsense AI platform creates a digital twin of pets, analyzing activity levels, sleep quality, movement patterns, and environmental conditions to detect abnormal behaviors and predict health issues early. The collar includes Safe Zone escape alerts and costs $79.99 with a limited-time 15% launch discount.
8. SwitchBot AI MindClip
The SwitchBot AI MindClip is an 18-gram wearable device that records and transcribes conversations in over 100 languages. The device transforms spoken information into summaries, task lists, and a searchable knowledge base that functions as a second brain.
Users can retrieve past conversations through voice commands and receive AI-generated reminders based on what the device thinks they need to remember. The MindClip requires a subscription-based cloud AI service, though pricing and launch details have not been announced.
9. WheelMove Wheelchair Power Assist
WheelMove is a motorized wheelchair add-on that attaches to any manual wheelchair in seconds and weighs less than eight kilograms. The 250W motor provides power assistance up to six miles per hour with a range of 15.5 miles on a swappable battery.
The device lifts the front caster wheels to help users traverse rough terrain like grass, cobblestones, and dirt paths, and can handle slopes up to 10 percent. WheelMove costs approximately $6,000 and is expected to ship in France in 2026 before expanding internationally.
10. Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete
The Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete is an ultra-thin robot vacuum measuring just 7.95 cm tall, designed to clean under low-clearance furniture. The robot includes ThermoHub mop self-cleaning technology that uses 212°F water to wash mop pads, reducing odors and improving hygiene.
The system features 30,000 Pa of Vormax suction power and AI-based navigation to avoid obstacles and organize cleaning routes. Dreame showcased the X60 series at CES 2026 as part of its expanded smart home lineup.
