pak-china-us3r LAS VEGAS, United States, (Xinhua) — As technology companies showcased breakthrough products at an official media preview event on Sunday ahead of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), innovations from China are emerging as notable game changers in areas ranging from artificial intelligence (AI) to robotics.
The annual special promotion event, CES Unveiled, held two days before the world’s largest and most influential technology trade show, offered a preview of key trends shaping the sectors of consumer health, human capability and home automation.
Among the exhibitors, Ascentiz, a robotics startup founded by Chinese mountaineer Feng Sha and robotics researcher Wang Tian, introduced what it described as the world’s first modular exoskeleton system designed for everyday consumers.
Traditional exoskeletons are typically developed for industrial or medical use and often cost over 10,000 U.S. dollars. Ascentiz aims to make the technology more accessible, with products priced between 1,500 and 3,400 dollars. The system targets athletes, outdoor enthusiasts and elderly users, while also helping aging workers extend their careers.
The technology should “dissolve into the experience, leaving only the enhanced human,” said Feng. “We have indeed broken through the traditional medical and industrial boundaries of exoskeletons, defining them as ‘human capability enhancement equipment.’ We target everyday consumers who love life and value efficiency and experience, making enhancement technology part of daily life, not just a rehabilitation or labor tool,” Feng told Xinhua.
Another Chinese exhibitor, Kling AI, demonstrated artificial intelligence tools for video creation and editing. Launched in China just 18 months ago, the platform has generated over 600 million videos and reported annual revenues exceeding 100 million dollars.
The company said its tools are already used by professional filmmakers and television producers, while its latest model is designed to be accessible to users without technical expertise. Video edits can be made through simple text commands such as “change daytime to dusk” or “remove bystanders.”
