LAS VEGAS - Before the booths get finished and 150,000 people invade the halls of the Consumer Electronics Show, the folks who organize the CES pick out the products they deem as the most innovative,

Here's a sneak peek at the CES Innovation winners.

The Lily camera follows you as you move around and will sell for $799

--This year there will be over 100 new drones at the show. But how many can you throw in the the air and fly handsfree? That’s the concept of the Lily, which calls itself the world’s first flying camera. Be sure to check out the footage in the accompanying video. The Lily will sell for $799 in the spring.

Sengled smartbulbs turn on and off from an app--and have built in audio speakers too

--You’ve heard the hype about smart lightbulbs, which turn on and off via an app. How do you like the Sengled Voice, which does all that--and has a speaker built in as well for music and other audible sounds.

Belkin charge dock for Apple Watch and iPhone sells for $130

--When the Apple Watch was released last year, it came with a cumbersome charger, yet another accessory folks had to carry around. So the folks at Belkin decided to invent a better way--a combination Apple Watch/iPhone dock. It's not cheap though--the unit sells for $130.

ODG R-7 smart glasses

--Remember when Google Glass was going to be the next big thing. Well, that never happened, but the idea didn’t go away. The R-7 smart glasses from ODG has a built-in camera, 3D view of the world and wireless connectivity for the steep price of $2,750.

The Oura smartring.

--Finally, for the person who has everything, how about a computerized ring? The Oura is described as a “wellness” computer to help you sleep and perform better.

The Consumer Technology Association has a complete collection of Innovation winners on its website.
