The 44th edition of the Autumn Electronics Fair will showcase a diverse array of consumer electronics, spanning smart home and commercial appliances, audiovisual equipment, and the latest technological innovations across more than 20 specialized zones. This year's focus will be on three key themes: digital entertainment, smart mobility, and the silver economy, aligning with global tech trends and societal needs.
In digital entertainment, the fair will cater to the booming gaming industry and the rise of wearable tech. The Computing & Gaming Zone will feature gaming headsets, keyboards, and controllers, while the new Digital Entertainment Experience Zone will offer visitors the chance to experience immersive VR and AR products.
In the smart mobility segment, a local start-up will showcase a groundbreaking electric vehicle (EV) retrofitting technology that converts fuel-powered cars into EVs. Additionally, the Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute will present its C-V2X technology, designed to enhance the safety of autonomous driving.
