From the best in home entertainment such as wallpaper thin OLED TVs and levitating speakers to home appliances like smart refrigerators that order groceries for you, to robots that do your chores and mobile technology such as the K10 with true HD display for premium viewing and the Tone Studio, that gives you personal surround sound right around your neck.

Let's start with a smarter kitchen. "All you have to do is knock on a translucent window outside of the door in door and you can see inside the refrigerator without ever opening the door. What that really saves is energy but also an incredible amount of convenience and probably at the top of the list is the ability to connect up with Amazon Alexa and that will allow our consumers to not just create shopping lists but if they choose for the ultimate in convenience even order directly from Alexa and have if delivered directly to their home", Dave Vander Waal, Vice President Marketing, LG Electronics USA.

Look up recipes, stream music; it has a smart tag menu that let's you add a sticker to indicate what food is inside. Even track expiration dates plus it has a built in camera with a panorama view that sends photos right to your photo of what's inside so you can check what you need while you're at the store.

When it comes to laundry LG revolutionized it with the award winning TWINWash, which does multiple loads at once.

"To create true value in your home we are announcing a series of new robot technologies that deliver the innovation for a better life", Dr. Scott Ahn, President & Chief Technology Officer, LG Electronics.

Check out this robot vacuum. The LG Hom Bot Network water mop. "

Which has been advanced to not only recognize what objects are in front of you but also whether it's a person, so it doesn't actually bump into you. It will stop and talk and say 'excuse me. Can you please move'."

They are bringing robotic technology to help with outdoors chores too. Check out the new lawn-mowing robot.

We now have a robot lawnmower. Literally will go out and mow your lawn for you. It's your own gardener.

Personal assistant. Check! The Hub Bot can do everything from preheating your oven to playing your favorite soundtrack while cooking.

Finally no CES roundup is complete without talk of TVs. LG's Signature OLED is the lightest, thinnest, and most stunning picture quality with infinite contrast and perfect blacks. And a new concept in television, picture on wall, causing it to appear as though it's floating. LG's Signature OLED W7 at a mere one tenth of an inch thick is the world's first ultra thin picture on wall OLED 4K TV. Called wallpaper TV by many it creates a natural sense of immersion for the viewer. LG was the first to introduce OLED TV a new category of premium. The W7 takes this line to even greater heights this year, delivering an unrivaled ability to produce the most lifelike images of any television you've ever seen.

"AS if you are looking into a window into another world"
