Four Big Technology Trends for 2014

This year’s Consumer Electronics event in Las Vegas has identified four key areas for domination in 2014.

Self Driving Cars – cars that navigate on auto pilot and a huge range of gadgets and devices for automobiles were a big hit at this years show.
Smart TV’s – not just smart TV’s but big TV’s with even more detail plus TV’s that bend.
Smart Home Integration – Google just paid over $3billion for a manufacturer of fire detectors and home appliance controllers. This sector is set to boom. Everything from electronic locks that automatically unlock as you approach your front door (with your mobile phone) to lights that go on and off as your enter and leave.
Android Operating System – the PC world is dominated by Windows and Apple operating systems but the news that Android is joining the fray could have big implications.
