Residential Systems names Arqaios a 2026 Picks Award winner

The editors of Residential Systems selected ALLIE by Arqaios for a 2026 Picks Award at CES 2026, one of 21 products chosen across the show.

Updated

Las Vegas, January 8, 2026. Residential Systems, the trade publication for custom-installation and smart-home professionals, has named ALLIE by Arqaios a 2026 Picks Award winner. The Picks Awards are chosen by the editors of Residential Systems, TWICE and TechRadar Pro from the products shown at CES, and ALLIE was one of 21 selections on the Residential Systems list.

The award recognizes ALLIE's approach to safety and energy intelligence: mmWave radar, acoustic and environmental sensing and on-device AI built into the light switches, outlets and vents a room already has, so a building can detect a fall, know whether a room is occupied and manage its energy without adding a camera anywhere.

The Picks Award came two days after the Consumer Technology Association named ALLIE a CES 2026 Innovation Awards Honoree in the Smart Home category.
