CES 2018 may not start until tomorrow, but the new product announcements are emerging at a rapid rate already. Those products include plenty of 3D printers, 3D printing materials, 3D scanners, and other 3D technology-related innovations, and 3DPrint.com is in Las Vegas and ready to take a look at as many of them as possible. One of the new products being introduced comes from HP Inc., but it’s not a new 3D printer this year – it’s a 3D camera.

In the case of some transplants, the organ donor is still alive and can lead a normal life post-surgery, such as someone who donates their kidney. But for many transplant surgeries, this is not possible, especially when it comes to a donated heart or face. A team of 3D printing experts at NYU are embarking on a mission with the plastic surgery department of NYU Langone Medical Center that could benefit the loved ones of people whose faces are donated to someone in need of a transplant.
