welcome back to las vegas. now, last week we brought you some of the big news from the consumer electronics show here in the city, but there was just way too much to fit into one programme so this week we're going to bring you some more. now, this place is a tourist hot spot. it attracts travellers from all over the world because it's unique. the architecture is quite something. it's got the sunny skies and if you want to party, well, there's nowhere like vegas. there certainly isn't! but the way people visit these places may be changing. and paul carter has taken a trip into the future.

las vegas welcomes over a0 million visitors every year. that's over 110,000 people every single day. and all of those travellers need somewhere to rest their weary heads after experiencing everything this city of excess has to offer. as well as the home of ces, las vegas is the city of hotels. there are more hotel rooms in this city than anywhere else on earth. so where better for a new property that's powered entirely by ai? and i'm here to check it out. 0tonomus is a new hotel just a few minutes away from the las vegas strip, and its founders claim it's the first true ai—powered hotel in the world. in reality, many hotels are now integrating ai into their operations. but the team behind 0tonomus say their hotel has it baked into every aspect of a guest's stay, from the ground up. for us, ai is not

for the sake of ai. it's really using technology to bring back something timeless, which is human connection, right? ironically, using advanced systems to provide the simplest, most beautiful feeling, which is feeling that somebody truly understands you, right? and that's the power of ai for us. once your reservation is made, the hotel will begin gathering as much information about you as it can. it will ask a series of questions about your preferences, and will also scrape the internet and social media sites for information on you, using that data to personalise your stay and build a digital avatar. as with many modern hotels, guests will be able to check in and access their rooms without any human interaction. so this is the check—in process and it's all handled through the phone. so ijust need to complete it on here and do a little bit of identification verification first, which i'm

just filling in now. and from there ijust need to scan my face to prove that it's me. there we go. and we're done. 0k. and i'm in. the hotel also features what it calls an e—butler system, whereby everything from room service to fresh towels can be delivered to the guest via the room panel or a smartphone without the need to speak to or even see a member of staff. now, the idea is that you can have as much or as little human interaction as you want, and all of the services and amenities with the room are controlled by a panel like this. and to test it out, i requested some extra towels for the room and all being well, we'll see if this works. 0h, ijust heard that's unlocked.

here are my nice clean towels. featuring one—bed rooms up to six—bedroom suites, the hotel has been designed so that it can dynamically adapt the layout, allocating a combination of rooms and suites together depending on the customer's needs. so this is one single apartment, but for the purposes of this booking, we've also booked the apartment next door, and the system automatically knows that we've got both apartments and unlocks this interconnecting door so i can walk through to the next one. of course, many of these features already exist in different hotels, but what the team behind 0tonomus say they're trying to do is combine all of these services and more, and bring

all of the data together to build a complete digital profile. 0tonomus say that this data collection will allow them to customise every aspect of a guest's stay at a granular level. but will people really be that comfortable with allowing a hotel to know every aspect of their personality? the guest is in full control of all the data, so first they can opt out of the data from the first second, or they can opt out of the data at any time during the journey. but also you can go back and delete all the data that you want. so we're only a custodian of the data, and the guest is in full control of all that data. the purpose for us is strictly and simply to offer a better stay. and with so many hotels concentrated in one place, why choose las vegas to launch such a concept? what's a better place to launch a hospitality concept from las vegas, you know?

the heart and the epicentre of hospitality, globally, and especially when you have a layer of tech and you have the ceo of the biggest technology show in the world here in vegas, so everything comes together. that's the right place for me to go head—to—head against 200,000—plus rooms with a unique product that we're offering that hotel basically cannot offer. so if we make it in vegas, which we will, we're going to make it globally. and that's a proof, a very powerful proof of concept and that's why las vegas for me is the right and special place to launch it. technology has made telemedicine possible, but how about combining a video call with a medic with the tools that might be needed for the actual diagnosis? this is what's known as a clinic in a box, a remote doctor's appointment that can take place anywhere. but the reason you're entering it is because there's also some equipment.

this is a demo set up today, but if i was doing it for real, i would be having a live doctor's appointment here in the large video screen. hello and welcome to the 0nmed carestation. you'll notice that the door and window fog for complete privacy. let's start a typical consultation by checking your vitals. there are thermal imaging cameras all around. they'd be taking my temperature. there's a blood pressure monitor here. i'm standing on what are some scales. from my dashboard i can control the stethoscope... 0h! ..and hd camera that are being deployed from the ceiling right now. thank you forjoining me on this tour of the 0nmed ca restation. designed for remote areas, or indeed anywhere, to boost access to medics, it also hopes to provide the psychological comfort of a traditional appointment, albeit one that you do need to leave the house for. you could have one clinician now servicing multiple care stations. this has now been deployed in at least 15 rural

communities across parts of the country, where folks haven't seen a doctor ever, or someone in the last 30—plus years. so we had to make this incredibly intuitive. this is not a tech—heavy solution. there appear to be other benefits too. if you are somebody who worries about germs, well, uv—c light and air purification takes place in here in between each patient. but, of course, you are going to experience less interaction with other sick people than if you're sitting in a waiting room at the doctors. this does probably feel a step further towards having an actual doctor's appointment, because you're coming somewhere to a private spot. the doctor is there, big, and in your face, albeit remotely. and there are these devices that you can use, and i'm sure if i'd done a real test, it would have felt far more interactive. what i can't help but feel, though, is there are some limitations.

there are plenty of things you can test for, but what about the things that you can't? you wouldn't be able to do a blood test, give a urine sample or a doctor prod you to see if something hurt. anything that's associated with fluids, we've been very deliberate — we're not bringing it into the carestation. in the communities we're servicing, we are seeing a 90% plus ability to service them inside of the carestation without an outbound referral. vision tests could be getting quicker and more portable, too. eyebot�*s booth only takes 90 seconds to do the job. ok, i'm looking inside to read the letters. nose. n-o-s-e. it feels like a game. there's also that familiar balloon that you see in an optician�*s test. cameras are measuring my eyes whilst i demonstrate what i can see. it can then come up with a prescription and if any problems are spotted, they can be flagged. we have multiple cameras on board and so these cameras are always looking at your eyes. and so inevitably we find conditions in your eyes. we don't make the claim

that we diagnose these conditions, but they come to me as an eye doctor so i can validate them and get you in for a full eye exam. like much of the other health tech on the show floor, these ideas aim to help us access the monitoring, diagnosis, and care that we need at a time where in—person appointments may seem harder to come by than ever. but technology might just be able to help fill some of the gaps. this is the sphere, an entertainment venue that this comes days after an executive order was signed by president trump for social media platform, 75 day extension to comply with the law banning the app if it is not sold. tiktok briefly went

dark across the states hours before president trump took office and after the supreme court denied of it by its chinese owner to overturn the legislation. social media giant metal is now offering to pay up to $5,000 to popular creators in the us to join facebook and instagram but it doesn't mention tick—tock by name, the timing could suggest that the er attempting to capitalise on the uncertainties surrounding its rival. netflix is adding subscribers to its platform and increasing its prices for its users. this is the sphere, an entertainment venue that lights up the las vegas skyline, boasting high—definition, fully surround screens both outside and in,

and a location that delta airlines have picked to show off their ideas for the future of travel. this is an arena designed to take us to other places, but what about the tech to physically take us from a to b? this year marks delta's centenary. one of the oldest airlines in the world, they started as crop—dusters before making the jump to passenger travel. but what will their future planes look like? we interviewed children. you think about the next hundred years of aviation, children are unencumbered with some of the realities of what's required to actually make some of those things possible. and so this idea of when they think about, well, what if a plane could do this, or what if airports looked like that? we actually took that into partnership with airbus and said, well, what if? what might that look like?

and it's things increasingly that actually go back to nature. and whether that's geese who fly in a formation where there's uplift from the very first goose with the v shape and things like that. and like in many industries, there is a big theme that tech can help with. this idea of sustainability is everything. because the point that people should not have to choose, do i see the planet or do i protect the planet? there's such a benefit from humanity coming together and better understanding each other at the very moment our world is kind of pulling itself apart, that how do you then sustainably enable that to continue to exist for another 100 years? we have got to find ways to take the things we know are possible and make them a quicker reality, not waiting 100 years, but certainly bringing that far forward into the next few years. what is the timescale of actually some of this new innovation coming to life on your planes? some of it is here now, right? part of the things like upcycling and repurposing of materials, sustainable aviation fuels certainly exist now. the key is how do you get those things at scale, and how do you get supply

chains and airport facilities and even countries to embrace some of those technologies. because they exist, but they have to be able to exist at scale. when you think about an airline like ours that carries 200 million people a year, fuel has got to be readily available in all 60 countries that we operate to. there are, of course, lots of people who say we shouldn't fly at all. it's so bad for the planet. are you actuallyjust going too slow at bringing in this sustainability? yeah, i'd actually push against that in the sense that our world clearly needs connectivity. it needs people to better understand the power and the value of understanding each other. we proved during covid that zooms and calls and kind of other technological means of trying to connect are insufficient, as opposed to the power of a hug, the power of face—to—face. so i think it's true that we've got to find ways from a technological standpoint to protect the planet. but we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that aviation enables us to connect countries, people,

communities, cultures. for the next chapter of the airline, a new type of aircraft for shorter journeys could be just around the corner. the reality is, there are technologies coming to the market in the next three to five years. evtol — electronic vertical take—offand landing. think of a helicopter who's got the ability to turn its blades, so once it's vertically up in the air, it can turn them and start going forward or backward. that technology exists today. that technology exists today. we'll be showcasing it. we'll be showcasing it. and the ability to link people and the ability to link people between short flights, between short flights, whether that would be a glasgow whether that would be a glasgow to london or, for us, going to be coming fairly soon. to london or, for us, los angeles to san francisco, los angeles to san francisco, just as automotive did, just as automotive did, give people the idea give people the idea that, 0k, how do we make that, 0k, how do we make the batteries stronger? the batteries stronger? how do we make the how do we make the batteries last longer? batteries last longer? and we start increasing and we start increasing the range of those things. the range of those things. that's going to happen and it's that's going to happen and it's

going to be coming fairly soon. delta's partner, joby aviation, are currently building and testing their aircraft to get approval to start operating commercial services. but others building similar tech have faced financial challenges. ev tools have been touted as the next big thing in aviation for a long time now, yet some manufacturers have really struggled to get them off the ground. a reminder that sometimes the tech of ces is still a long way away. so that's life in the sky. but what about when we land? this is glydways, a suzuki—backed self—driving public transport system that initially wants to change how we get to and from airports. they're hoping to have their first pilot next year, with the carts travelling on dedicated sections of road

so the boat understands its environment and it can move itself in all different directions. so you can programme it to move automatically into a docking location. the system here is using cameras rather than lidar, which is often used in autonomous driving. that's because the tech has to be able to deal with reflections from the water. and of course, the conditions are very different from the road. when you stop a car, it stays still. typically, when you stop a boat, it continues to move because there's wind and waves and currents acting on it. and there's a lot of inertia and it pitches and rolls. unlike parking a car, it's sometimes difficult to know what a dock is. boats pull up against a lot of different structures made of wood and concrete so we have to be able to recognise all that variety. a vessel like this doesn't come cheap, but something more affordable is their electric hydrofoil flight board.

or even better, a ride on the simulator, where if you fall in the water, you don't get soaked. smart glasses are often touted as the next step on from the smartphone. maybe we'll use them for calls and messages, and all sorts of information could flash up before our eyes as sound is directed into our ears. and this year, the ces show floor was awash with them. it feels early days... the screen keeps going off. ..but with some impressive functionality emerging, many a tech company seems to have their eye on the prize. this is amazing. the ray—ban meta glasses have been around for a few months. i've got a pair for the sun here. they also come with clear lenses.

their main aim being to create content, so you've got cameras here that can film and microphones in them. they can also be used as audio sunglasses if you want to listen to music, or if you want to have a chat with someone on the phone. but new features are coming soon and they're all based around ai. first up, it's time to translate a book from spanish to english. hey, meta, translate this book. nojoy at first. i wonder if it's because i keep looking at the camera. let's try again. hey, meta, translate this book. it thinks it's a blank book. holding it up in front of my face mightjust do it. hey, meta. translate this book. electronic voice: for a moment, the cameras are stuck— on peter's downturned gaze while everyone assimilates what he just said. it's reading it like an audiobook. may have been a glitchy start, but this is great. you can also just keep the ai function on for half an hour and do all sorts of things. hey, meta, tell me what's in front of me. in front of me is a person —

that's yasmin filming — two chairs, some things on the table, including some promotional material, which is a ces magazine. that was seriously impressive. and the sound quality was absolutely amazing too. there are three to four hours' battery life available on them, but the case also charges them. it can give you an extra three charges throughout the day. halliday�*s glasses have a different focus. i've actually got a screen in my field of view over there, which allows me to read words. so it can translate, it can help me answer questions if i'm having a conversation to make me sound really clever, because it connects via your phone to the internet. to control what function you're using, you can either swipe the side or, through this ring, there's a little touchpad on the back, and so you can scroll up and down. now i'm going to put it to the test with a spot of translation.

so you're going to speak in mandarin. and i'm hopefully going to see the words come up here in english. he speaks mandarin it seems to be a bit behind and the screen keeps going off. he speaks mandarin "i'm talking to you in chinese right now. "can you hear what i'm saying?" i can not only hear it, i can understand it. how's the battery life? the battery life lasts longer than 12 hours, so use it for an entire day. that would be a very long conversation. there were some challenges with internet connection and noise on the show floor, but even when the projected screen worked well, it never really felt comfortable to look at. a proof of concept, yes, but a perfected experience? not quite. now, most glasses are meant to aid your eyes. but how about your ears? there are many people who could benefit from wearing a hearing aid, but they don't, sometimes because they simply don't want it to show. so how about an invisible solution that can be combined with a pair of glasses? these are the nuance audio

smart glasses, which also have speakers on the side, but this time to amplify all the sound around or boost people's voices. the accompanying smartphone app allows you to choose the right settings for your environment. let me demonstrate. what did you have for breakfast this morning? i got some eggs and a cappuccino. now that sounded louder to me whilst the background noise didn't. and that's because there are directional microphones so whatever i'm looking at is what i'm going to hear louder. now, the sound quality is really clear. it can be a little bit tinny, but we are in quite a difficult environment here in the middle of the show floor. the fact is, they do isolate the voice. they do make it louder, and they do what they say on the tin. smart glasses can clearly provide an array of benefits — perhaps some you never even knew you wanted. chamelo's glasses are all about colour change, so this pair can be worn with lenses, or you can have a sunglass version,

and byjust tapping the side, you change the colour of the glass. pink. blue. 0range. clea r. so whatever the weather conditions are, or whatever you're getting up to, you can make it appropriate. if you want something sportier, though, then these are audio sunglasses. you can listen to music in them. you can also make phone calls. there's a microphone and speakers here just above the ears, and you can adjust the brightness. so if you're in bright light, you move it like this and the lenses become darker. when things get a little bit darker, well, there you go. you can see better. as the early days of tech trends go, some of them seem impressively up to the job already, whilst others feel like an early generation of an idea to be built upon. and that's it from us in vegas. yeah, it'll be interesting to see what things we've seen

in the last couple of weeks actually do take off. i always think it's really difficult to tell. well, it's certainly been fun and fascinating and very vegas. yes. yeah. definitely that. yeah. thank you so much for watching and we will see you soon. bye. hello there. another named storm as we start off the new working week. this time it's been named by the spanish met service because of the effects that it will have on the iberian peninsula. it's storm erminia, but there's also some impacts here across the united kingdom. heavy rain and some strong gusty winds. there are met office weather warnings in place, and this time it's the southern

half of the uk that will bear the brunt of the worst of the weather over the next few days. so the storm's been brewing out in the atlantic. it's been pushing this massive cloud and outbreaks of very heavy rain at times further northwards and eastwards through the night, that hook on the rain producing potentially still some very squally gusts of wind of up to 60 to 80 miles an hour, but clearing into monday morning. so this is how we'll start off the day. perhaps still some hill snow. just as that rain curls into southern central areas of scotland, there will be squally showers out towards the west and some very strong gusty winds. heavier rain pushing eastwards from northern ireland into northwest england and eventually up into southern and central areas of scotland too. but very strong winds out towards irish sea coast of up to 60 to 70 miles an hour, also for some western channel coasts too, and some of these showers are likely to have some thunder, some lightning and some hail in them. aome very heavy downpours and strong gusty winds. temperatures 6 to 9 c. tending to be drier and brighter across eastern areas of england. an improving picture somewhat on tuesday is the area of low pressure starts to weaken and fill, but there will still be plenty of showers swirling around. they won't be quite so potent as they will have been on monday, though,

and there will be some brighter spells, also some areas of cloud and more of a northwesterly wind. still quite blustery, particularly towards those western coasts. temperatures between 6 and 9 cfor most of us, and that area of low pressure clears away, only to be followed by another one that this time is going to be bringing some heavy rain at times, towards southern areas of england in particular. now there's still a lot of debate on how far north this rain is going to get, and if it does get further north than this, then over the higher ground, potentially, there could be some snowfall. but for much of the northern half of the uk, largely dry. a few showers around. temperatures again 6 to 9 c on thursday, though a ridge of high pressure. so, much more settled. conditions generally dry. there'll be some sunshine, more rain potentially on friday and through the weekend. bye bye.

live from washington, this is bbc news. egypt rejects president trump's

proposition to move palestinians out of gaza — a move the arab league now says would amount to, quote, "ethnic cleansing." hamas will hand over six more hostages including arbel yehud — paving the way for displaced palestinians to return to northern gaza from monday. and president trump and his colombian counterpart trade threats of tariffs — after colombia turned back two migrant deportation flights. hello. i'm carl nasman. we begin with breaking news out of the middle east. israel confirms — hamas will hand over three more hostages by friday, including civilian hostage arbel yehud. israel had accused hamas of breaching their ceasefire terms — when she wasn't released along with other hostages on saturday. in return, israel will allow displaced palestinians to return to northern gaza

from monday morning. in other developments — egypt has rejected any attempt
