This year’s show was a continued success, with ces-1tens of thousands of people making their way to Las Vegas to witness some of the most exciting technology on the market today. One technology ended up stealing the show, and that was 3D printing.

For the entire week of the CES, media outlets were buzzing about the various 3D Printing companies in attendance, many who were their to unveil key products within the space. Both Makerbot, and 3D Systems announced major product lineups, and the show seemed to really bring a sense of hype to the industry. For weeks after the event, the internet and the mainstream media continued to buzz about the amazing new 3D printers and 3D printing ideas that were on display at CES.
