The 11 Coolest Things at CES So Far, From Wi-Fi Tea Kettles to Electric Roller Skates

See our favorite products from the first day of CES, including wearables, some smart devices for the home, and yes, a pair of electric rollerskates.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA---The show has barely begun, and we've already seen enough weird and wonderful tech to fill a house. And that's precisely the point of many of the items on display here at CES; New devices for smartening up your home are plentiful. We've seen kitchen appliances, lighting systems, and electrical conduits that are designed to be safer, to consume less power, and to be controlled via mobile apps.

Of course, wearables are everywhere as well---of the dozen or so pieces of wearable tech we saw on the very first day of the week-long show, a few caught our attention. Like the watch that not only counts your steps but can also quantify how cranky you are, or the full-size helmet that measures your brainwaves to determine your level of "chill," emitting soothing music if you need to calm down. Yes, mood rings are back. Only now, they strap onto your noggin and play smooth jazz.
