Atitan at CES 2026: Momentum, Prototypes, and What We Learned

By atitan Team7 min read

If you're reading this, you joined us on our journey- and we're glad you're here. We just wrapped up exhibiting at CES in Las Vegas, and the response has been incredible. This post is a brief recap of who we are, what we're building, and what we learned on the show floor.

Who We Are and What We're Building

We are a team of eight based in California, creating a connectivity ecosystem on top of next-generation wireless communications. Our focus is harnessing Auracast and LE Audio over BLE to deliver a dynamic audio experience for both consumer and commercial users.

This technology allows us to transmit audio wirelessly to an indefinite set of speakers, opening untapped opportunities for new audio experiences- from personal listening in museums and places of worship to ad hoc surround sound with no wires and no traditional network setup.

Personal and Public Audio: Where It Shines

Personal audio experiences include museum tours where you immerse yourself in an exhibit or tune into your tour guide live through your own headphones. The same technology is powerful for accessibility: many congregations already use similar systems so those with compatible hearing aids can tune in like a radio channel or use a headset at the entrance. This applies to any forum- even a pub where people might want to tune into a specific TV. It creates an entirely new interface for interacting with the technology around us.

Public audio experiences enable ad hoc surround deployments with no need to lay wires or build a traditional network- whether upgrading existing equipment or deploying speakers in new environments.

CES 2026: Prototypes, Traffic, and Feedback

We came to CES with functional prototypes and left with strong momentum. Visitors to our booth ranged from audio engineers and integrators to everyday users curious about what Auracast can enable. We also received direct feedback from industry leaders, including Palmer Luckey, which was especially valuable as we refine both the hardware and the user experience.

The volume and quality of this feedback has been instrumental in validating our approach and sharpening our roadmap. We're now incorporating what we learned on the show floor as we move toward our official product release in the coming months.

What's Next

Overall, CES was a success. We're grateful to everyone who stopped by, asked questions, and shared ideas. Your input is already shaping our next steps- from hardware refinements to the connectR app experience. Stay tuned for more updates as we move toward release, and thank you for being part of the journey.
