Additive Manufacturing and the Unique Benefits of Smart Eyewear Production

20 Nov 2025

Smart eyewear promises a new wave of connected, wearable technology, but most existing products are bulky, expensive to iterate, and lack user comfort or personalization. In this session, HP and Tech Print Industries (TPI) explore how additive manufacturing (AM) solves the real challenges of smart eyewear production and unlocks the flexibility needed to bring it to market.

We will highlight specific use cases, including modular eyewear designs, personalized fit adjustments, friction-fit hinges, and small-batch production models made possible only through AM. The presentation also covers the role of AI in smart eyewear design, local manufacturing, surface complexity, and functional integration.

Attendees will walk away with a deep understanding of how AM enables quick prototyping, on-demand customization, and future-forward product development in a fast-moving consumer space, and why this approach can extend well beyond eyewear to other wearables like jewelry and watches.
