Tech Print Industries (TPI), the global technology and supply chain management business, specializing in 3D printed eyewear, has announced it will reveal the latest technological innovations with its facial scanning technology tool, and launch three new optical collections of 3D printed eyewear, at Vision Expo East on March 27th through 29th at the Javits Center in New York City.

The latest updates to TPI’s versatile Scan2Print technology incorporate new and improved high definition 3D facial scanning and mapping, as well as virtual try-on capabilities. Additionally, the platform can now utilize artificial intelligence to map each patient’s unique facial morphology and then provide recommendations for eyewear styles and shapes that will best fit their facial shape and individual biometrics.

This digital eyewear builder is compatible with the latest iOS devices and completes a facial mapping process that measures over 70 biometric facial landmarks in approximately one minute, including pupillary distance and position, vertex distance, optical center height, and facial shape. Once the scanning is complete, the platform will provide recommendations for ready-to-wear styles that will best fit the customer’s face. Users can then engage in a virtual try-on with these suggestions, or browse a digital catalog for all available styles.
