HP 3D Print Design Competition

Contest from HP:  Color is opening up a world of new possibilities for 3D printing. It’s helping surgeons create models to prepare for surgery, allowing manufacturers to develop better parts, and enabling customization not previously possible.

How would you use color to elevate 3D printing? Show us by submitting your color design to our competition for a chance to win an HP ZBook 15 G5 Mobile Workstation.

Color should be used in a way that increases and/or expands the product’s desired function. Be sure to highlight why 3D printing is the best channel of production for your idea. What benefits come from using 3D printing for this product?
