Early January is more than just the start of the new year for the tech junkies out there. It's also when the annual Computer Electronic Show, or CES, takes places in Las Vegas. Each year, thousands of people from nearly every industry tangentially related to the consumer-electronics space flock to Sin City to see and show off the biggest and boldest gadgets from the 12 months to come. In recent iterations, we've seen everything from color-changing cars to "rollable" laptops, not to mention more futuristic TVs and wearables (for humans and pets) that we can count. With that in mind, here are the 10 standout products from this year's convention.

Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable

Lenovo thinks it's figured out a way to make gaming on the go even more immersive. No, it's not launching an ultra-capable handheld console; instead it's hard at work on a gaming laptop with an expanding screen. The proof of concept on display at CES featured a 16-inch widescreen display that can "unroll" horizontally to 23.8 inches at the touch of a button. There's more to the laptop than its screen, though. It's based on the Legion Pro 7i, which means that, should it make its way to market, it'll be up for playing the most hard-core games out there.

Klipsch Atlas Headphones

One of our favorite speaker makers is getting back into the headphone game after a five-year absence. Indianapolis-based Klipsch unveiled a new family of high-end cans called Atlas in Las Vegas. The headphones, which are scheduled to launch this summer, include the wireless HP-1, the closed-back HP-2, and the semi-open-back HP-3. We're particularly intrigued by the first of the trio, which will supposedly feature the kind of coaxial drivers that even the snobbiest audiophiles should approve of, while still delivering "standout" battery life.

Lego Smart Brick and Smart Play

The Danish company's "most significant evolution" in a half century is a 4×2 toy brick with a tiny little computer inside of it. This addition, along with the presence of multiple sensors, will help bring the company's new "Smart Play"-enabled sets to life. In a pair of upcoming Star Wars-themed releases—"Darth Vader's TIE Fighter" and "Throne Room Duel & A-Wing"—the Smart Brick will add immersive lights and sounds familiar to anyone versed in George Lucas's fictional universe to the sets. Smart Minifigures and tags that utilize the same tech are also set to arrive alongside the bricks this spring.
