Chicago and Las Vegas, January 6, 2026. Arqaios, Inc. has been named a CES 2026 Innovation Awards Honoree in the Smart Home category for ALLIE, a set of intelligent building fixtures with integrated sensors and on-device AI. The CES Innovation Awards program, owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association, recognizes outstanding design and engineering in consumer technology products.
As described in the honoree listing, ALLIE is a light switch, a power outlet and a ceiling vent whose 60 GHz mmWave radar measures presence, posture and gait trends while ambient light and environmental sensors support night-time navigation and HVAC control. The fixtures coordinate locally to detect potential falls, adjust lighting when a resident gets up and send alerts to caregivers or facility systems, with no cameras or wearables required.
Arqaios introduced ALLIE the same day and demonstrated live mmWave radar sensing and sensor fusion inside its smart switch at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. The company's initial focus is senior safety in independent living and assisted living communities.
The recognition follows two issued U.S. patents covering communication-enabled power management and AI-enabled emergency detection and response in smart fixtures, both assigned to Arqaios, Inc.
