The Weirdest and Worst Inventions at CES 2015

January 14, 2015 By Deborah Campbell Leave a Comment

The International Consumer Electronics Show, or CES as it is widely known, is a tech and electronics trade show where major companies come to show off their newest inventions to the world. Sometimes those inventions and innovations end up being amazing and also amazingly useful, as you can see in our top gadgets from CES 2015, but other times, companies would come up with products that leave us scratching our head and wondering what on Earth they were thinking. Keep in mind that this year, there were more than 20,000 products on display, so it was quite tough choosing. Here are the weirdest and worst inventions that CES 2015 brought forth, so prepare yourselves!

Sony Walkman NW-ZX2sony walkman

Yes, Sony came out with a Walkman at the CES 2015, but it’s no ordinary Walkman. It’s a bulky, and quite expensive Walkman that can play high resolution audio playback. If we had to express an opinion about it, we would say that it’s unnecessary and that there aren’t enough people in the world who are passionate about hi-res sound in order to keep this product alive.

InMotion V3 Electric Unicycleinmotion

The InMotion V3 Electric Uncyle just seems like an accident waiting to happen. Why would anyone want to make an electric unicycle is beyond us?! Aside from the fact that it take a lot of practice to be able to ride it, it’s also quite expensive and saying that we’re not seeing a market for it would be the understatement of the day.

LuminetteLuminette

Luminette has a great idea behind it: it offers light therapy to all those people who are affected by the lack of light during the colder seasons. It is meant to help increase energy levels and it does it by regulating internal rhythms. Sounds great, we know, but the device itself is bulky and unappealing. They should have put more thought into designing it!

Communication Androidcommunication android

Tech fans love robots, but this year at the CES 2015 there were so many that you felt a little bit uneasy, especially around this humanoid. Her voice was freaky and her stare was nightmare material. We would not want this android in our homes, no sir!

InBodyinbody band

InBody is a health bracelet that tell your body fat percentage, body water balance and segmental muscle distribution. It’s a pretty advanced device, but the charts it puts out are so complex, that it is definitely going to put off many people off it. Unfortunately, the average consumer wants smart and easy gadgets and InBody is just smart. Really smart!

OkuOku

Oku is a personal skin scanning device that can be hooked up to your iPhone and see the damage done to your skin by the sun. Oku shared its premise with us: You wear a device to track your steps, sleep and heart rate. What if you had something that could track your skin health and help you develop a customized anti-aging regimen and motivate you to stay on track?

Bluetooth Air2 Speakerfloating bluetooth speakers

These Bluetooth speakers are quite good, but that’s not what sets them apart from your standard Bluetooth speakers. What’s so cool about them is that they can levitate. With the help of repelling magnets, the smaller speaker floats above the larger one while it is playing music. Pretty awesome, we know, but we think it’s one feature you’re going to get tired of quite quickly.

Breo Dream3 Head and Eye Massagerbreo 4

A head and eye massager is the last need anyone on this planet needs. But that didn’t stop Breo from making this expensive device which uses vibration and compressed air to massage the wearer’s head, eyes and neck. We’ve gathered that the device gives rough massages! Ouch!

Innerlyinnerly

Innerly is a smart pendant whose purpose is to help consumers relax and take back control of their lives. This device will record your voice and all you need to do is press a little button; the memos are then sent to app where you can add photos and text. The thing that makes this device pretty useless is the lack of a camera. If you want to record a memo, why not just use your smartphone?!

Brother’s The Dream Machinedream machine

You can’t look at this machine and not be amazed by it. It is a smart sewing machine that has an HD display, useful for making embroidery plans. It would make such a cool gift for any DYI enthusiast, until you look at the price. Brother’s The Dream Machine is $15,000! Can you really think of anyone you know who would shell out $15,000 for a sewing machine? Neither could we.

Grush Gaming Toothbrushthegrush

The Grush is a smart toothbrush that can be connected to a smartphone and with the help of sensors, it mimics their brushing technique and incorporates it into an interactive game. While the idea behind this contraption is quite a nice one (encouraging children to brush their teeth), it does send out the wrong message.

Swissvoice L7 Telephoneswiss voice l7 phone

Are you tired of your smartphone giving you all the information you needed in a matter of seconds? Are you upset with the fact that you can be connected at all times with the help of a pocket-sized phone? Swissvoice has heard your desperate cry for help and it is giving you  the best of the seventies to home phone in 2015. That’s right, it’s an old-school phone! Good luck with that, Swissvoice!

Robo-Rump Shakerrobo rump shaker

We couldn’t believe our own eyes when we saw this contraption! Hey Robo-Rump Shaker, the 40’s called and they want their gadget back! Do people still believe that shaking your jiggly bits will cause you to lose weight? Even though similar machines have been making a comeback every decade or so, we have faith that this one won’t catch on. Or at least we strongly believe that it won’t and that people have smartened up by now about this type of workout.

What is your favorite invention from this year’s Consumer Electronics Show?
