in Consumer Electronics Show 2026where we presented Best of CES 2026 awardtechnology companies showcased their latest and greatest upcoming devices that have the potential to impact our lives. This has been particularly the case for health tech, where we’ve spotted several trends that show us where the industry is headed – interestingly, one place it intends to go is directly into our toilets.
To give you an idea of the devices we might one day wear on our bodies and keep inside our homes, these are all the health devices that caught my attention at the tech event.
Your toilet tells it all
Companies like Kohler and throne It has introduced toilet cameras that analyze bowel movements and urine to collect information about bowel health and hydration. At CES, this closer look at your bathroom business continues with Vivo smart toilet. Yes, this is the same brand that created the FlowPad.
The Vivoo Smart Toilet is less of a toilet and more of a tester that suctions onto your toilet. It collects a small urine sample to monitor your hydration and uploads this information to the Vivoo app. This is similar to Withings U Scan Nutriobut the Vivoo lasts up to 1,000 tests, while the U-Scan can only run more than 20 tests per cartridge.
The Vivoo Smart Toilet is a tester that flushes onto the toilet.
The actual smart toilet at CES is Fovo smart toiletwhich features a built-in urine sensor that analyzes urine and displays the results on a screen mounted on the bathroom wall. It also features a “Jindo the dog” option, which was developed with seniors in mind. If the smart toilet is not used for 8 to 10 hours, a registered family member will be alerted to perform a health check.
Although these devices are interesting and can provide useful information, they raise the question: How much technology is too much, especially now that it’s made its way into our toilets?
Mirror, mirror, on the wall: How old am I?
The word “longevity“She won’t be able to catch her beauty break anytime soon.
New health technology company NuraLogix Longevity mirror give Consumer Electronics Show 2026 A moment to think about their health, as it tells you how old you are with just a simple selfie. By analyzing blood flow patterns in your face, the mirror scores the following from zero to 100: your heart health, mental stress, risk of cardiovascular disease, metabolic health, Biological ageWhich represents your body’s biological age.
You can create up to six profiles in Longevity Mirror. This is ideal for a family that keeps track of their health metrics.
The Longevity Mirror wasn’t the only device promising to give you a glimpse into your long-term health. New Withings Body scan 2 The smart scale measures more than 60 vital indicators, including your heart health and cellular health, and will alert you if anything seems abnormal. This way, you can make changes before these red flags develop into something more serious.
L’Oréal says its LED face mask can promote firmer skin.
On a deeper level, L’Oréal also revealed its product LED face mask To promote firmer skin while reducing signs of aging, as well as Light Straight Plus Multi-Styler, which features infrared light to reduce hair damage. Perhaps using tools like these, the mirror of longevity will find that years have been wasted from your life.
Technology says: “You are what you eat”
We have seen apps for tracking and scanning food such as Yucca, Zoe’s health and MyFitnessPal emerging and expanding, gaining artificial intelligence capabilities and providing us with a closer look at the impact our food choices have on our bodies. The rest of the industry is following suit.
In its Connect Plus app, Garmin Now offers nutrition trackingwhile Abbott’s new Libre Assist app feature uses artificial intelligence to inform people with diabetes about how their meals affect their glucose levels. There was also a preview of the Amazfit in development V1tal food cameraWho sits at your table and monitors what, when, and how you eat. It then uploads the nutrition and lifestyle data it captured directly into the brand’s Zepp app, which already has a food logging feature.
The Allergen Alert mini lab can test food for gluten or dairy.
For people with food allergies, an interesting product called Allergy alert Currently under development and being tested by professional chefs. It’s a small tester that fits in your pocket, and can tell you in just minutes with just one food sample whether your food contains gluten or dairy. In the future, the company plans to add additional allergens.
Whether you have diabetes, a food allergy, or simply want to know more about your diet, there are now a range of apps and devices that can help you – without the need for a nutritional label.
Hormones forward
Although women have historically been underrepresented in medical research, that was not the case at CES 2026.
For people who menstruate, OhmBody It is designed using neurostimulation technology to make menstrual cramps less painful. It is attached to the body non-surgically like a hearing aid and engages the trigeminal and vagus nerves, affecting the menstrual cycle.
The OhmBody can help relieve pain caused by menstrual cramps.
There was also a FlowPad. Created by Vivoo, a company that offers home health tests, the FlowPad is a menstrual pad that uses menstrual blood to Ovarian health, fertility and hormone testing. The latter can be especially beneficial for those experiencing menopause or perimenopause. The test is located at the bottom of the panel, where it is scanned so the results can be uploaded to the Vivoo app.
To support people going through perimenopause, Berry wearable It was also on display. To replace self-reporting, it can capture symptoms experienced by individuals going through menopause. It sticks to the torso and can detect night sweats, anxiety, hot flashes and more, recording this information in an app where artificial intelligence can provide analytics.
Peri’s wearable device can detect menopausal symptoms.
As more devices become available to support women’s health, we hope that healthcare providers will take this on and take patients with PMS seriously.
Health tracking free of screens, subscriptions, and scrolling
traditional Fitness trackers You often have your own screens that you can view to see your health statistics, and even… Smart rings Requires apps to record untraceables from your finger. when He croaked his wrist It was introduced, and it was unique because it didn’t have a screen; However, the app is still necessary to record your symptoms, meals, and mood. It also requires an annual subscription similar to Oura ring.
That’s what makes the newly unveiled Luna Band so interesting: It has no screen, no surprise subscription, and still tracks your health metrics with its sensors, but it allows you to use your voice to provide context. To achieve this, the device has an artificial intelligence engine called LifeOS, which is also designed to answer your health questions.
The Luna band is available in several colors, including gray, orange, navy blue, and champagne.
To see your health stats instead of checking an app, the Luna Band can display them through your earbuds or smartphone. It also works with apps like Apple Health and Google Fit.
Another hands-free device that doesn’t require manual adjustment is what sleep tech company Stareep calls the world’s first AI-powered device. SmartSleep ecosystemIn the form of a smart mattress and an adjustable base. While you sleep, the mattress collects data similar to a traditional one Sleep tracking devicesBut it automatically responds to sound, motion, height adjustments, and environmental cues, so you can get the best sleep of your life without having to lift a finger or check the screen.
Stareep’s SmartSleep system collects sleep data and can make adjustments to the mattress.
From our laptops to our phones, TVstablets, Smart watches and fitness trackers, we’ve reached a point where there are too many screens vying for our attention (and maybe… Harmful to the health of our eyes). So a health tracker that doesn’t require any of that is a welcome sight.
Our CES health tech takeaway
CES 2026 has proven that health technology, just like artificial intelligence, aims to permeate every aspect of our lives. It’s on our wrists, it has a place on our dining room tables, it sleeps with us at night, and now it’s in our toilets. If you’re there, health tech likely wants to be there too.
While some of these devices have the potential to positively impact our lives, others leave us with questions about privacy and accuracy, and concerns about potentially causing health anxiety and leading people to believe they no longer need to consult their doctor. Only time and our tests will reveal which category these pieces of health technology fall into: an unnecessary intrusion or a life-changing innovation.
