“The Monar Canvas takes this idea to new heights, offering built-in speakers as well as a 19-inch screen at the center with all sorts of ways to change the scenery. Not only can you drop in your own images or choose between over 50,000 classical paintings, but the Monar can also display the lyrics of your favorite songs and even create AI art based on those lyrics. In my brief time with the speaker, its artistic interpretations were interesting.”  —Ryan Waniata

There were a number of robots on display at Unveiled. Many companies seem keen on not only making a robot, but giving it an anthropomorphic face. Most of them don't interest me all that much.

However, LOOI caught my eye. It's a robot with a WALL-E-like visage, which in and of itself isn't necessarily groundbreaking. But what I found particularly interesting is you don't buy LOOI's face: You only buy the robot's body, and provide the face with your own smartphone.  — LifeHacker's report on LOOI.

I spent many years living in small apartments without a dishwasher—and I hated it. I actively avoided cooking because I could not stand having to hand wash every plate, bowl, or utensil I used. That's why LISSOME R1 piqued my interest. It's a low-profile portable dishwasher that I would have loved having in my small kitchens. I hope this one lives up to my personal hype.  — LifeHacker's review of LISSOME.
