Millions of gadgets have only just been unwrapped for Christmas, but the giants and minnows of the tech world are gearing up for a fresh barrage.
More than 3,500 firms will exhibit new wares at this years' International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, on top of the many others there for more private show-and-tells.
Despite questions about the event's relevance in an age when tech firms stage big-budget unveils of their own, CES still pulls a huge crowd.
"It's still the most important event in the calendar across the broader technology landscape," says consultant Ben Keen from IHS Technology, who thinks this might be the 20th time he's attended.
"In the old days it was very much about what were called brown goods - everything around the TV set and related technologies. But now, it's quite extraordinary how many sectors converge.
