NEW YORK --(Business Wire)-- The 2007 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES(R)) today announced its Innovations 2007 Design and Engineering Awards honorees. Sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA(R)), the producer of the International CES, and endorsed by the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), the International CES Innovations Awards highlight product advancements in technology design and engineering.
"With a record number of more than 1,000 product entries in 2007, the Innovations program continues to expand and gain prestige each year," said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CEA. "The 2007 Innovations honorees represent some of the most innovative product designs in consumer electronics and we are thrilled that they will be showcased at the 2007 International CES."
Winning entries from 29 product categories will be displayed at the 2007 International CES at the Innovations Plus at the Sands Expo and Convention/The Venetian. In addition to housing the prestigious Innovations honorees, the Innovations Plus at the Sands/Venetian will feature emerging technology exhibits and hot product TechZones including the Anytime, Anywhere TechArena, Bluetooth, Consumer VoIP, Gaming, IPTV, Mobile & Personal Broadband, Robotics and the Studio@Home TechZone. Additionally, the CES keynotes, high-performance audio and home theater exhibits and CES Unveiled will be featured at the Sands/Venetian.
The International CES Innovations Design and Engineering Awards program provides manufacturers and developers the opportunity to have their products judged by an independent panel of journalists, designers and engineers. Judges review and evaluate each entry based on engineering qualities (including technical specifications and materials used), the product's intended use/function, unique/novel features, impacts on the manufacturer's business model and aesthetic and design qualities (using visuals provided).
The Best of Innovations designation is awarded to products that earned the highest honors from the panel of judges.
