Five Gadgets from the CEA Line Show

Multiple exhibitors lined up at the Consumer Electronics Association Line Show to show off their latest products.  Here are a few of the more interesting gadgets the CEA Line Show had to offer.

1)      Soulra: While there are other solar powered sound systems on the market, none of them can actually charge your iPhone/iPods while you're listening to music. The Soulra, made by Eton, can do both at the same time. The device features an impressive stereo sound quality and also comes with a rechargeable lithium battery pack, just in case the sun isn't shining. It can be bought at various retailers or online starting at $199.99.

2)      Parrot AR Drone: This is a four tiered helicopter which is part video game, part video camera and fully controlled by your iPhone. It has two video cameras, one facing the front and one on the bottom, which allows you to stream the video onto your iPhone.  You can also play fighter simulation-type video games on your own or against other Drones. It will be available in the US for $300.

3)      Xtreme Sports Cams Brand: This group of products from Liquid Image, allows you to record video and take photos under water, while skiing, riding a motorcycle or on a DMX bike with specialized goggles. Each pair of goggles comes with a micro SD card to save your photos and videos. Various models are available now at starting prices of $99.

4)      VIOlight UV Cell Phone Sanitizer: For the person with a phobia of germs, this device is a dream. After placing your phone in a slot and then covering it with a silver shell, a UV light will kill off the germs and bacteria your phone is carrying. The device then shuts off after three minutes of cleaning. It's available for $49.99.

5)      Modlet:  From ThinkEco, this device can wirelessly monitor and control an appliance's energy consumption. Whatever you plug into the Modlet outlet, you can manage by downloading the Modlet platform on your computer with a USB key. If you buy multiple Modlets, you only need one USB key and platform. The device will be released later this year.
