CES is always fertile ground for experimental consumer health technology and new wearables, and CES 2026 is no exception. Amongst the tri-folding phones, vibrating kitchen knives and robot bartenders are various gadgets looking to make their way into our lives to make us fitter and healthier in 2026 and beyond.
Many of these devices are still in a proof-of-concept stage, while others are already available to buy. From the best fitness trackers at the expo and additions to existing popular apps to brand-new hardware form factors, these are the health gadgets getting tongues wagging on the show floor this year.
1. NuraLogix Longevity Mirror
Yes, the Longevity Mirror sounds like the name of some magical artifact desired by an evil wizard, but it’s actually a cutting-edge piece of tech that was telling CES attendees and media partners that their blood pressure is probably too high, or they’re aging too fast.
Using cameras and a sophisticated AI algorithm, the Longevity Mirror from NuraLogix looks at the blood-flow patterns in your face to estimate a variety of wellness details, such as heart rate, physiological age and even mental health. Early reports indicate the device is fairly accurate, and I’d expect that as you enter more information into the device its AI algorithms will begin to tailor themselves to your profile.
It won’t come cheap, though: the Longevity Mirror reportedly starts at $899 (around £660 / AU$1,330) with additional subscriptions on top.
2. Garmin Nutrition Tracking
Garmin has a big presence at CES, and in lieu of any new watches its big announcement is the addition of a Nutrition Tracking feature to its Garmin Connect+ offering.
Simply snap a picture of your food with your phone’s camera, and the AI will analyse its database of foods home-cooked, store-bought and restaurant-ordered, enabling users to “track their calories and macros (proteins, fats and carbs) and receive Active Intelligence insights to help them achieve their nutrition goals”.
Garmin’s Active Intelligence AI will then provide guidance based on your goals – and in case ‘Active Intelligence’ wasn’t a tipoff for Garmin users, yes, this means that Nutrition Tracking is only available for Garmin Connect+ users.
Garmin’s new premium tier, Connect+ received a mixed reception on launch, as existing Garmin users feared that new features for the already-expensive best Garmin watches would be locked behind the paywall. Well… looks like they were right.
3. Withings Body Scan 2
Another potentially wellness-enhancing innovation, the Withings Body Scan 2 smart scale is designed to be your one-stop “longevity station”. Smart scales have long been about more than simply measuring weight, but the Body Scan 2 measures over 60 different biomarkers to help you get a handle on your health.
Speaking of handles, the scale uses a handheld sensor connected to the main scale by a retractable cable for more accurate measurement using electrical impulses. It’ll measure your weight, BMI, fat, muscle, bone density, hydration, heart rate, artery health, metabolic efficiency… the list goes on.
While it’s potentially great news for your health, it’s less good news for your wallet. Reports indicate that the Withings Body Scan 2 will cost $599.95 (around £445 / AU$895).
4. Luna Band
The latest fitness tracker debuting at CES presents an elegant alternative to swiping through watchOS or wearOS interfaces on tiny screens. The Luna Band is a fitness tracker without a screen, like Whoop (but without a subscription) or the new Polar Loop. The main attraction of those fitness trackers is that they’re passive collectors of information, not really interacted with outside of the app.
The Luna Band, however, is designed to be operated via voice. It specializes in “real-time, voice-led health guidance”, the idea being that you can log your meals (similar to Garmin, above), workouts and even mood and emotions by speaking to the device, and view your info in the app at a later date.
This is apparently done via Apple‘s Siri smart assistant, meaning you’ll need an iPhone to use the Luna Band, but there’s no word on Android compatibility. There’s also no word yet on a price or launch date.
5. Sunbooster
There’s a stereotype that people who spend a lot of time on computers don’t necessarily spend a lot of time outdoors. While I can neither confirm nor deny this, I can say that CES 2026 has brought us nerds an excuse to spend even less time outside: say hello to the Sunbooster from SunLED Life Science.
It looks like a webcam, attaching to a computer or laptop, and projecting near-infrared light for two to four hours a day. It’s a little like an SAD lamp in a more concentrated format, and regular near-infrared light exposure has been shown in studies to offer consistent wellbeing benefits. It looks like it could be a great way to mitigate the effects of seasonal affective disorder and lift your mood.
A phone case and a monitor with near-infrared lights built in are also on the way. The Sunbooster is priced at €199, which is about $235 / £175 / AU$350.
