CES 2023 Pepcom Digital Experience: Coresight Research Insights The technologies featured in this report cover a range of themes, including beauty, healthcare, robotics and the metaverse. 1. Aeo Service Robot by Aeolus Robotics The Aeolus service robot, called “Aeo,” can complete a variety of tasks including cleaning, delivery and security. For example, Aeo Disinfect kills 99.9% of pathogens in minutes, and can be controlled by anyone using the app, according to the company. For autonomous delivery, users only need to select a pickup and drop-off location; they can monitor delivery progress and receive photos using the Aeolus app. Aeo service robot Source: Coresight Research 2. Micro-Hearing Tech by Eargo Eargo’s latest FDA (US Food and Drug Administration)-approved hearing aid model, Eargo 7, is a virtually invisible, self-fitting hearing aid that leverages breakthrough micro-battery technology, according to the company. Eargo 7 is water resistant and rechargeable, and it has a battery life of up to 16 hours.
