While Gentex Corporation’s automotive technology will take center stage at its main booth at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the company will also showcase its product diversification strategy by highlighting its advances in the smart home, access control and premium audio industries, company officials stated in a press release.
Gentex is a technology company and long-time supplier of electro-optical products for the global automotive, aerospace, fire protection and medical industries. While the company is best known for automotive electronics, it’s been strategically diversifying its product portfolio, with recent acquisitions providing a foothold in medical, smart home, biometrics and premium audio, noted the release.
“This year’s CES will be our largest yet, with five different exhibit areas in three different convention center halls,” said Gentex chief operations officer and chief technology officer Neil Boehm. “The primary Gentex booth will be home to our automotive technology, including the latest in digital rearview mirrors, dimmable sun visors, and driver and in-cabin monitoring systems. But we’ll also have displays dedicated to our eSight digital assistive device for low vision, EyeLock and BioConnect access control products, PLACE smart home safety system, VOXX automotive products, and the Premium Audio Company, which manages world-renowned audio brands Klipsch and Onkyo.”
Centex Technology on Display at CES 2026
Gentex will showcase its next-generation Full Display Mirror (FDM), which incorporates the company’s proprietary Dynamic View Assist, a series of dynamic viewing modes that can enhance driving safety and make using a digital mirror feel more natural.
Gentex will also showcase the next generation of its large-area dimmable devices, including dimmable sunroofs and sun visors that incorporate various integrated vanity mirror designs.
For CES 2026, Gentex has developed an all-new driver and in-cabin monitoring demonstrator that tracks driver head pose, eye gaze and other metrics to determine distraction, drowsiness, sudden sickness and return of manual control in semi-autonomous vehicles.
Centex’s next generation of HomeLink includes cloud-based garage door activation thanks to a recent partnership with The Genie Company, which enables Gentex customers to control connected Genie products via HomeLink, securely triggering garage door open/close commands from the HomeLink app or connected vehicle via the HomeLink cloud. In addition, HomeLink will soon be compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto while also operating a broad range of smart home products from brands such as Amazon and Samsung SmartThings.

In addition to the main Gentex booth in West Hall (booth #4339), the company will have two satellite displays at the Venetian Expo Center for its PLACE (booth #52752) and eSight (booth #54607) products.
