It is argued that without communication and modern digital electronics, many people would not be able to work during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Likewise, modern consumer technology is extremely dependent upon connectivity, processing, and memory/storage. With the general economic impact on many consumers,1 overall consumer technology sales will be down in 2020, but people are more dependent than ever before on their consumer devices to connect with others and continue (when they can) working at home. The reliance on web-based meetings, online education, and cloud-based services, in general, will increase as time goes on. After the pandemic ends, people will be more likely to participate in a virtual event and to look for virtual experiences to replace some physical experiences. This should drive increasing demand for bandwidth to support telepresence and virtual and augmented reality. This will also drive the consumer application and cloud-services industry.

CONSUMER ROBOTS IN VARIOUS ROLES This issue of MCE is dedicated to consumer robots. While I thought of this theme, the first thing that came to mind is the robots of series of movies of Star Wars. Probably, R2-D2 and C3-PO are the widely popular fictional robots/characters among all of the presented in Star Wars. Simplistically, we can say that robot is a machine that can automatically sense, make decisions, and perform actions. In general, robots are of various categories including aerospace, consumer, disaster response, humanoid, and industrial. Specifically, the consumer robots are the robots for personal help and fun, for example, AI-powered robot assistants and a variety of robotic toys and even vacuum cleaners. Consumer robots that have serious demand for growth in future include cleaning robots, smart speakers, and consumer drones. Consumer robots’ market is estimated to be US$ 17B in 2020 and expected to grow to US$ 76B in 2026.

& IN JULY 2020, the IEEE Consumer Technology Society (CTSoc)—OdishaChapter started functioning under the Kolkata section and Bhubaneswar subsection. The state of Odisha is not only rich in minerals (e.g., has a quarter of its iron ore, a third of its bauxite ore and most of the chromite ore of India), but also has several Institutes of National Importance of India, including the Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar and the National Institute of Technology Rourkela (NIT) at Rourkela. Its capital, Bhubaneswar, has been recognized for its heritage and technologically emerging city and is a designated smart city. However, there were not any professional societies, which could ensure the ideas of those innovators into any development works. The formation of Consumer Technology, Odisha Chapter provided a common workspace that allows innovators to share ideas, innovation in existing technology, and build the next generation innovators. The first executive committeemeeting recently held for the Chapter, where all the members of the CTSoc Odisha Chapter discussed different events and programs to organize in the next couple of months. The main objectives of CTSoc, Odisha Chapter is to ensure the growth of skill and knowledge among the general public and professionals in the field of Consumer Technology. The following activities will be planned in this year under the Odisha chapter: Distinguished Speaker Program, Educational Activities & Webinars, and Industry Engagement. An interim executive committee has been agreed upon by all the members who will work on by law and other activities to make a vibrant Chapter in Odisha for CTSoc.
