Samsung Bali, a ball-shaped mobile projector
Samsung surprised many consumers by introducing Bali, a projector robot that can freely move around your home and help you in various ways. The idea behind creating the Samsung Bali is to give you a screen wherever you want without having to wear something like Google Glass or Apple Vision Pro on your face.
To do this, Bali goes with you wherever you want and by analyzing your position and the angle of your face, it can set the image you want in the best view. The cute spherical robot uses artificial intelligence to do this, but that’s not the only technique Bali knows how to do.
This little friend also doubles as a control center for your home electronics. That means Bali can be used to control lights, lights, alarms, curtains, doors, stereos, refrigerators and many other things. All you have to do is ask through its interface what you want to do. This is the second time Samsung has shown off the Bali, and it’s clear that it has come a long way with its design since its debut at CES 2020.

A flappy, smart cat door that keeps out unwanted visitors
Flappy’s creators share a great love for cats and there is one thing they both agree on, which is that raising a cat is hard. Especially because of that cat habit of bringing their prey indoors. So if you don’t want your cat to leave a dead mouse or bird under your bed, Flappy can come in handy.
Flappy is a smart cat door with multiple sensors, a night vision camera and an automatic door designed to keep your cat out if it comes with a hunt or a friend. The ultimate goal of this device is to help you keep your home clean, and your friend will be free from diseases that can come with these “gifts”.
In addition to that, since Flappy is motion activated, it will have an app that mainly provides you with statistics, recordings and live video of your cat’s videos. In addition, it is used as a way to prevent unwanted visitors from entering a small door other than your cat.
Lenovo mouse and keyboard, tools that turn movement into energy
Chances are, at some point you’ll find one of those survival flashlights that doesn’t run on batteries, instead using a lever to turn on the flashlight. Lenovo implemented the same idea in the keyboard and mouse, where you have to fill in small parts by moving them around.
On the one hand, this seems like a pretty new thing, because you don’t need to plug them in or need batteries to keep the devices alive. Additionally, Lenovo said at the event that 1 minute of movement was enough to give the devices half an hour of power.
The keyboard has a knob on the top, along with small solar panels, that provide the necessary power to the device. However, the mouse has a little problem and the controller is at the bottom of the device that needs to be moved to give the battery. Basically you can’t use the mouse and fill at the same time, but of course these are just examples.
That’s it with our list of the 5 strangest gadgets presented at CES 2024. Some more rare than others, but all attract attention in their own way. If you liked the article, leave a comment below and tell us which one of these stood out to you the most.
