The year 2015 was a big year for the technology industry - phones became smarter (even not-so-expensive ones), drones moved from sci-fi to e-commerce industry and more. As the year ends, here's capturing in pictures some of the biggest technology feats of the year.
These innovations not only made an impact this year, but will also shape technology trends in 2016 and ahead.
*)Robots can smile
A humanoid robot named "Yangyang" shows a facial expression during its demonstration at the Global Mobile Internet Conference in Beijing, China, April 29, 2015. The android was produced jointly by China's Shanghai Yangyang Intelligent Robot Science Service center and Japanese professor Hiroshi Ishiguro, with the aim of popularizing robotics among the young.
*)Drones fly high
Drones fly in synchronization above attending conference-goers as they dine outside along the ocean during the opening remarks at the beginning of the Wall Street Journal Digital Live conference in Laguna Beach, California October 19, 2015.
*)robot can cook for you

*)Robot joins Apple fanboys
Brianna Lempesis, from San Diego, appears on a video screen on her "Beam" robot, while waiting in line to purchase an iPhone 6S at the Apple store in Palo Alto, California September 25, 2015. Lempesis made the purchase via the screen and the phone was attached to a hook on the robot.
*)Google car
A prototype of Google's own self-driving vehicle is seen during a media preview of Google's current autonomous vehicles in Mountain View, California September 29, 2015.
*)Samsung joins VR race
Guests use Gear VR virtual reality headsets, made by Oculus and Samsung Electronics, during a preview session in Hollywood, California September 24, 2015.
*)The Big Freeze with Nikon
Jacob and Ester Fu jump in the Nikon 360 Degree Project during the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada January 6, 2015. The project uses images taken from 48 Nikon D750 cameras to create 360-degree frozen moments and slow motion captures in 5K resolution.
*)3D printed robotic prosthetic hand
