Pepcom at CES: HomeKit Accessories Galore, a Tiny Apple Watch Charger, an iPhone-Connected Car HUD, and More
One of the best ways to see the highlights of what CES has to offer is at the shows -- CES Unveiled, Pepcom, and ShowStoppers. MacRumors videographer Matt hit up Pepcom last night, where he searched for the coolest, most interesting products available on the show floor.
Amid the highlights at Pepcom were the motion-activated
Ring Floodlight Cam, iDevices HomeKit-enabled
switches and outlets, the HomeKit-enabled
Eve Series, Incase luggage equipped with batteries and Bluetooth, and a snazzy
keychain-sized Apple watch charger from Kanex.
Navdy's iPhone-connected heads-up display unit for use in cars was one of the neatest products at Pepcom, and Corning was there showing off Gorilla Glass 5, which is more resistant to impacts and could be used in future iPhones.
