THE SPARK OF INNOVATION
Our future is wide open as our industry solves thorny problems. We spur entrepreneurs. We inspire innovation. We foster those with great ideas, passion and the fortitude
to create a new business, pursue a dream or develop ideas unimaginable a few years ago. Our products and services enhance life, make us safer and healthier or
entertain and educate us. As more devices have Internet addresses, they’ll connect to each other as well as us, bringing even more new opportunities.
The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)® and our more than 2,000 innovative companies create economic growth, jobs and improve lives. CEA member companies
develop, market and sell the products and services that entertain, inform and connect consumers. Sales of consumer electronics (CE) devices continue to grow with U.S.
factory sales for 2014 up 2.4 percent over last year expected to reach a record $208 billion.
CEA continues its mission to grow the industry through unique market research conducting two-dozen consumer studies each year, developing standards to ensure
technologies connect with each other, working with legislators to ensure a level playing field for companies to compete, hosting the International CES® and providing
members with access to business mentoring, promotional opportunities and networking events.
The CE industry has expanded beyond its traditional borders to include all who focus on innovation, including content providers, auto makers, and most recently, our
new Health and Fitness Division created to serve a new market devoted to consumers who want to engage more in their digital health and fitness. CEA encourages
entrepreneurs every day through our startup membership.
Come with an Idea
Unleashing Innovation
CEA also produces the International CES®, the world’s largest platform for innovation
held each year in Las Vegas. As the place where innovation and technology converge
to do business, CES draws thousands of tech companies from around the globe to
discuss ideas, collaborate, learn and meet potential investors, partners and media.
A surge of innovation is ready to unfold as long as unnecessary government
policies don’t get in the way. We need a national strategy focused on innovation to
create a culture that encourages success. CEA is leading the charge to reform our
immigration laws to allow highly skilled immigrants, especially those with STEM
(science, technology, engineering and mathematics degrees), to remain in the U.S.
upon graduation and contribute to our economy. Strategic immigration is critical for
America to remain a tech hub and global leader.
This year, more than 3,500 companies showed products that will change society,
solve problems and improve our lives. The popular Eureka Park Marketplace provides
entrepreneurs a special location where they can share concepts and ideas with
investors, buyers, media and international guests. The money earned from CES is
reinvested into the industry to advance the initiatives that are vital to our businesses.

But while immigration law changes will help us retain our innovative edge, what
about jobs in sales, service, installation and repair? CEA members should consider
2014 CEA Corporate Report
hiring veterans. It makes business sense and is a chance to give back to our veterans
who put their lives on the line for us. CEA has joined with other leading technology
trade associations to launch USTechVets.org, an online resource created by the
Northern Virginia Technology Council along with online employment provider monster.
com – to match employers with talented veterans seeking careers in the technology
industry.
As a green association, CEA is working to make ecycling as easy as purchasing for
consumers. Three years ago, the “Billion Pound Challenge” was created to recycle
one billion pounds of electronic devices annually. In 2013, more than 620 million
pounds of CE products were recycled – an increase of 35 million pounds over 2012.
But a patchwork of state rules mandating recycling is complicating this goal. We need
a national framework for recycling and legislation that allows the industry to develop
innovative recycling solutions in partnership with states. More than 8,000 collection
locations can be found at GreenerGadgets.org.
CEA will continue to work to ensure both political parties address our serious fiscal
situation and push back on those who want government to dictate how we design
and build our products. We also will continue to encourage startups by supporting
incubators and promote business-friendly policies.
What can you do? CEA’s Innovation Movement supports action on the deficit,
immigration and patent reform. We also support No Labels a group of legislators
committed to working across party lines to solve problems. Sign up for free and
support both of these groups to make your voice heard.
At CEA we maintain a passion for excellence and a culture of innovation. As our
industry continues to reinvent itself and create new ways to connect, entertain and
educate people around the world, we ask you to join with us.
Increasingly, CE startups and established businesses are being targeted by patent
threats. These trolls are legal extortionists who destroy companies and jobs. Patent
lawsuits are simple and inexpensive to bring and complex and costly to defend. The
burden of frivolous lawsuits should be on the trolls. Let’s encourage our Congress to
stop patent trolls and free innovators to do what they do best.
And the proliferation of CE devices in automobiles has raised concerns about safe
driving. CEA’s Innovating Safety campaign educates consumers about responsible use
of in-vehicle products and also the safety benefits of these devices.
A Rising Tide
As CES demonstrates, innovation will continue to change lives in unexpected ways.
Title III of the JOBS Act will go into effect this year and open up new avenues to
fund disruptive innovation. And new technologies create spin-offs, ecosystems,
accessories and more opportunities.
So what’s next? Smartphones, tablets and headphones will remain vibrant but other
areas also hold tremendous potential. Ultra HD, 3D printing, the Internet of Things,
wearable tech, robotics, driverless cars, sensing devices and an array of applications,
services and technologies will transform our economy, save lives and delight
consumers.

THE INTERNATIONAL CES:
INNOVATION IN ACTION
What makes the International CES the most talked about technology tradeshow? Unbridled innovation, the power of
consumer technologies, boundless energy and strategic partnerships, are all part of the excitement of CES, owned
and produced by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). More than 5,000 members of the global media
come to CES to explore the latest innovations in consumer technology before they hit retail shelves. And 160,498
industry professionals from retailers and Fortune 500 executives to VCs, entrepreneurs and startups including
executives from every major industry came to Las Vegas in 2014 to see, touch, interact and conduct business.
From curved and flexible Ultra HDTVs and next generation smartphones to drones, robots, sensors, the Internet
of Things, hi-res audio, connected cars and 3D printers and the latest in digital health and fitness technology,
CES highlights the promise and future of technology.
As the global venue for all involved in the business of consumer technologies, the 2014 International CES drew
more than 35,000 international attendees from 145 countries to see innovation in action. Breaking previous
records, the 2014 CES spanned two million net square feet of exhibit space with 3,500 exhibitors.
Major players from top CE manufacturers, retailers and service providers unveiled what’s next for the industry
through keynotes, press conferences and panels. The 2014 CES featured 25 market specific technology areas
and 15 major product categories. From keynote addresses from Intel, Audi, Sony, Samsung, Yahoo and Cisco, to
the Futurecast Keynotes with AT&T, Qualcomm and Ericsson to the Innovations Design and Engineering Awards
Showcase to fledgling startups in Eureka Park, every major technology player was on hand. And across more
than 250 conference sessions, industry experts shared their insight on everything from successful retail tactics
to future trends in gaming, automotive tech and mobile. On the social front, the #CES2014 hashtag garnered
2.88 billion global impressions.

First Look for Media
Two days before the show floor opens, media attend CES
Unveiled Las Vegas: The Official Press Event of CES. At
the 2014 CES, press had access to 100 exhibitors such
as 3M Touch Systems, Bell’O, Chevrolet, DISH, Fitbug,
Holi, Liquid Image, Pure, Sculpteo and Tobii Technology.
Already a global event, the CES Unveiled series has further
expanded. For 2014, CES Unveiled includes events in
Shanghai, Warsaw and São Paulo as well as pre-CES
events in Paris, New York and Las Vegas.
The CES Unveiled event series brings innovative
technology companies, top media, buyers, analysts and
key industry influencers together to showcase new
products and tech trends leading up to the 2015 CES.
Each Unveiled event is tailored to the local audience and
highlights regional and global research, provides CES
news and showcases curated products and technologies.
Likewise, CES Press Day featured 25 exhibitor press
conferences in 2014. Numerous product announcements
included curved OLED displays, 3D glasses with stereo
cameras; Myris, the Iris identifying authenticator; the latest
Ultra HDTVs; 3D cameras that can scan objects for 3D
printing; and even the first electric racing car.
Inspiring Startups
But the core of CES is the global startup community
where entrepreneurs can highlight their innovative idea,
product or technology on the world’s stage. CES serves
as a platform for innovators to take their business to the
next level by giving them access to potential customers,
partners, investors and the global media.
Startups use Eureka Park at CES as a proving ground to
launch their new consumer technology products.
This year it featured more than 200 exhibitors–30 percent
larger than 2013–in partnership with UP Global, the
National Science Foundation (NSF), General Electric (GE)
and AT&T. And for the first time UbiFrance brought 11
French startups to Eureka Park. The new Eureka Park: NEXT
is designed for mid-stage startups that have launched a
product in the past year while Academia Tech focuses on
the latest technologies coming from universities.
Also new for 2014, the Indiegogo Zone featured hardware
campaigners from around the globe who shared
experiences about raising funds on the online platform. The
UP Global LIVE Stage, sponsored by GE, included panels
with entrepreneurs, investors, corporate executives and
media. UP Global also hosted mentor sessions and pitch
competitions. CES also offers events curated for startups
like the invitation-only Entrepreneurs Reception and Tech
Cocktail’s Startup Night.
Policy at CES
CES brings together leaders from major global industries,
as well as policy makers and government officials.
The 2014 CES featured government officials including
members of the United States House of Representatives,
state elected officials, members of the Federal
Communications Commission, including Chairman
Tom Wheeler, and members of the U.S. Department of
Commerce, including Secretary Penny Pritzker. Other
representatives from the Federal Trade Commission, the
Environmental Protection Agency, the National Highway

Traffic Safety Administration, the U.S. Department of
Energy and the Federal Aviation Administration were also
at the show.
Entertainment Matters
Entertainment Matters at CES is a content-focused
program developed for Hollywood’s film, television
and digital professionals, sponsored by Variety. This
year, television host Maria Menounos served as the
Entertainment Matters Ambassador for the program.
New for the 2014 CES, Variety’s Breakthrough of the Year
Awards celebrated talent from the fields of film, television,
music and comedy at a red carpet event hosted by actor
and television host Nick Cannon. But Hollywood stars,
musicians and sports legends can be found across the
show floor promoting the latest technologies.

Honoring the Industry
The International CES Innovations Design and Engineering
Awards honor outstanding advancements in consumer
technology across 29 product categories. These awards
recognize the most promising technology products and
services in the industry. Entrants are judged by a panel of
independent industrial designers and engineers as well
as by media.
In addition, CNET’s Next Big Thing: The New Hardware
SuperSession focused on the future of sensor driven
technology. The second annual CEA MoDev Hackathon

GUIDING INNOVATION
Every day, Congress addresses issues that impact innovation. CEA
is on the front lines in Washington, representing the consumer
technology industry on public policy issues, offering the industry the
voice it needs to grow and flourish. CEA advocates pro-innovation
positions to state and federal lawmakers, regulators and the courts.
CEA and its Innovation Movement focus on crucial policy issues.
Ensuring Accessibility to Technologies
Expanding the ITA
CEA supports industry-driven solutions to ensure that
innovative technologies and services are accessible to
consumers with disabilities. CEA works with members of
the accessibility community and the FCC as it implements
the 21st Century Video and Communications Accessibility
Act of 2010. CEA supports regulations that balance the
twin goals of improved accessibility with the flexibility to
innovate.
CEA strongly supports a more comprehensive approach
to the Information Technology Agreement (ITA) expansion
negotiations and has been closely advising the United
States Trade Representative (USTR) on the technology
industry’s position. A successful ITA expansion will
eliminate tariffs on CE products and save billions of
dollars for our members. CEA has spent extensive time in
Geneva consulting with the Secretary General of the World
Trade Organization (WTO) and ITA member nations. CEA
also continues to coordinate with the U.S. government,
and provide testimony and counsel for the ongoing
negotiations.
Encouraging Energy Efficiency
Voluntary, market-oriented programs and initiatives,
including industry-led standards, are a proven, costeffective and successful approach to advancing
energy efficiency in consumer electronics. CEA works
cooperatively with governments in the development of
energy efficiency initiatives and opposes mandates that
stifle innovation, reduce consumer choice, and limit
product features and services.
12
CE.org
Protecting Internet Freedom
CEA supports Internet Freedom, both at home and
abroad. The open and uncensored Internet is a great
engine of social and economic progress – but it is
under threat. Through the United Nation’s International
Telecommunication Union (ITU), a number of countries are
attempting to establish greater governmental control of the
Internet. Their efforts, if successful, could destroy the open
and innovative technology platform that millions around
the world need and trust. CEA commended Ambassador
Terry Kramer and the U.S. for refusing to sign the revised
International Telecommunication Regulations (ITRs) in
December 2012. CEA continues to support an open
Internet and encourages the federal government to make
it the official U.S. policy to promote a domestic and global
Internet free from government control.
Promoting E-Waste Solutions
CEA advocates for a national solution to e-waste in lieu of
a patchwork of state-by-state, redundant and inefficient
e-waste mandates. CEA’s eCycling Leadership Initiative
known as the “Billion Pound Challenge” seeks to improve
consumer awareness of the more than 8,000 e-waste
recycling collection sites sponsored by industry; increase
the amount of electronics recycled responsibly; increase
the number of collection opportunities; and provide
transparent metrics on ecycling efforts. The industry
recycled 585 million pounds
of CE products in 2013
and is committed to using
vendors that employ the
highest recycling standards,
including third-party
certification systems R2®
and e-Stewards®. CEA hosts
GreenerGadgets.org to help
consumers easily locate a
recycling location.
Enhancing Air Travel
Modernizing Online Sales Tax Collection
CEA supports common-sense legislation that will end
the unequal treatment of brick-and-mortar retailers by
allowing states to collect sales tax that is legally owed
from online retailers, removing an onerous and unfair
burden from consumers. The Marketplace Fairness Act
(S.743), which was passed in the Senate with bipartisan
support, will give states the ability to collect this much
needed, and legally due, source of revenue.
CEA commends the
Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) decision to
allow airlines to expand the use of personal electronics
and let passengers use their tablets, laptops and
smartphones – without significant interruptions for
takeoff and landing. CEA was one of several stakeholders
represented on the FAA’s Portable Electronic Devices
Aviation Rulemaking Committee which developed many
of the recommendations incorporated into the FAA’s
new guidelines. The FCC also opened a proceeding to
remove technical barriers to in-flight data and voice
communication over 3G and 4G networks.
CE.org
13
Stopping Patent Litigation Abuse
Protecting Fair Use and Innovation
CEA supports patent legislation reform that combats the explosion of lawsuits brought
by non-practicing entities, better known as “patent trolls.” Every dollar companies
spend fighting baseless lawsuits is a dollar not spent on creating jobs and developing
new products, making it more difficult for the American CE industry to compete
internationally.
CEA supports a balanced approach to enforcing intellectual property rights that
opposes commercial piracy while protecting fair use and not limiting the advancement
of innovation. CEA continues to oppose legislative and regulatory proposals that
unduly burden legitimate commerce, impede innovation or restrict the free flow of
information.
Promoting Safe In-Vehicle Technologies
CEA is committed to the principle that a driver’s highest priority is the safe control of
their vehicle. To this end, CEA supports state legislation that prohibits texting while
driving as well as a ban on cell phone use by those with a graduated driver’s license.
CEA strongly believes however,
that policymakers must
recognize that many in-vehicle
electronics contribute to safer
driving and offer valuable
benefits. CEA has two industrywide initiatives, the Innovating
Safety campaign and the Driver
Device Interface Working Group,
that leverage educational efforts
and recommend practices to
address distracted driving.
14
CE.org
Increasing Spectrum and Mobile
Broadband Access
Enabling the Best and Brightest
to Innovate
As consumers rely more on wireless devices and services,
our nation faces a looming spectrum shortfall. CEA strongly
supports government efforts to free up spectrum for
licensed and unlicensed use in three ways: (1) repurposing
TV broadcast spectrum for valuable wireless broadband
uses; (2) exploring spectrum sharing; and (3) clearing and
repurposing underutilized federal spectrum. In particular,
TV broadcast spectrum repurposed through voluntary
incentive auctions will promote innovation and job creation,
reduce the national debt, and amply compensate television
broadcasters that choose to participate. Incentive auctions
also will alleviate the spectrum crunch so Americans
can enjoy robust wireless broadband that will power our
innovation-driven economy.
CEA supports strategic immigration reforms that
encourage foreign-born entrepreneurs and U.S.-educated
immigrants to remain in the U.S. to build businesses and
create domestic jobs. CEA has backed reform legislation
including Rep. Darrell Issa’s Supplying Knowledge-Based
Immigrants and Lifting Levels of STEM Visas Act (SKILLS
Visa Act) and the Senate’s bipartisan Border Security,
Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernization Act.
The changes to national immigration policy from these
pieces of legislation will help to attract the best and the
brightest to come and stay in the U.S.
Supporting Disruptive Innovation
“Creative destruction” drives the market through
innovation, displaces older technology or ideas with the
new, and improves our lives. CEA supports disruptive
technologies such as DISH Network’s “Hopper”, Aereo’s
service to modernize access to broadcast television, and
Uber’s Internet-based on-call car service. It is essential
that disruptive innovation be allowed to move forward,
and not be stopped by incumbent industries with legal or
regulatory power in order to fuel the next generation of
innovation.
CE.org
15
ADVANCING TECHNOLOGY
The pace of innovation in the CE industry is unmatched. Technical standards
ensure that new advances harmonize with existing technologies. CEA’s
Technology & Standards team works year-round with software developers and
manufacturers to foster industry-wide collaboration and growth through the
development of technical specifications and industry standards.
Working groups and standards-focused events allow programmers and
developers to test and tweak their latest designs in order to set industry
standards. This process helps new products and technologies achieve industrywide deployment and interoperability with existing products and services. CEA
published 14 new standards last year, helping regulators and industry leaders
make informed public policy decisions about the most pressing issues facing
the consumer technology market.
With more than 1,100 participants and six dozen committees, subcommittees
and working groups, CEA’s Technology & Standards program is a trusted source
for rulemaking and is recognized by the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) for its accomplishments. To achieve the broadest level of interoperability,
the Technology & Standards committee, subcommittee and working group
meetings are open to CEA members as well as non-members.

CEA Achievements
Uncompressed Digital Interfaces
CEA published the latest edition of its standard addressing protocols, requirements
and recommendations for the use of digital interfaces by CE devices, such as digital
televisions (DTVs), digital cable, satellite, set-top boxes, DVD players/recorders, and
other related sources or sinks. This edition accommodates Ultra High-Definition TV
signals, as well as widescreen signals that are roughly the same dimensions as movie
theater screens.
Energy Efficiency
CEA’s understanding of the consumer technology industry, combined with innovative
and proven market research methodologies and analysis techniques, enables CEA to
provide members with actionable research. CEA members have access to more than
two dozen custom research reports produced each year. In the last 12 months, CEA
has produced research on key industry topics such as the cloud, tablets, smartphones,
portable electronics on aircraft, fitness technology and Ultra HDTVs. CEA has also
expanded its international intelligence by conducting global consumer study across
13 countries which provides global insights on technology use, adoption trends and
technology attitudes.
CESpec
CEA announced its new CESpec
program at the 2014 International
CES. The program features innovative
standards considered important to
the CE industry. Proposals to create
CESpecs are submitted to CEA and
the work continues during the year
with CES as the targeted completion
date. The accepted projects will be
announced at the 2015 International
CES. To create a standard that will be
promoted at the 2015 CES, submit a
proposal at CE.org/CESpec.

Current Initiatives
Wireless Power
CEA’s Wireless Power Subcommittee is creating standards
for methods of measurement for efficiency and standby
power for highly resonant and tightly coupled wireless
power systems.
Energy Efficiency
CEA’s Video Systems Committee has launched a working
group focused on revising ANSI/CEA-2037, Determination
of Television Average Power Consumption, the standard
defining a method for measuring average power
consumption of TV sets.
In addition, one of three working groups within CEA’s
Wireless Power Subcommittee focuses on establishing a
common method for determining power transfer efficiency
and standby power for CE devices that include wireless
power transfer functionality.
CEA has launched a new working group to investigate
reducing audio/video device power. When a home theater
has multiple devices, it is more efficient to know which one
is providing the current music or video, and which ones are
on or in sleep mode. This specification is expected to result
in increased user convenience and energy efficiency in
home A/V networks.
Standards to Promote Accessibility
In order to help the visually impaired orient themselves on
devices like remote controls, CEA established a standards
working group tasked with enhancing audio accessibility
and compatibility with external listening equipment.
Internet-specific Standards
the technical requirements for IPv6-enabled connected
devices and home routers. This specification will help
members target the right features for IPv6 compatibility.
Safe Driving
The Driver Device Interface Working Group (DDIWG) is
developing a draft recommended practice to provide
guidance in reducing visual manual driver distraction while
using portable or handheld CE devices that will be the
framework for future documents.

latest technologies to help to grow the industry, many of
which also benefit from the standards-setting process.
CEA’s detailed market research helps members make
