3D printing is becoming a huge part of the world. One interesting aspect of the 3D printing phenomenon is printing people. Our partners at the Eureka! Factory even printed a team member from a scan made of him. There are so many different ways to create and use 3D scans, the next great platform will bring these two together.
Shapie Me is that platform. Designed to collect and store all of your personal body scans, the platform then becomes the connector between the scanner and the printer. Printing isn't the only usage of these scans, though. They can be used for medical purposes to examine a patient across the country, or across the world.
Shapie Me is finalizing development and will be publicly available June 15, 2015.

Trey was born into a tech career. Instead of going to summer camp as a child, Trey spent summers working at the local news station with his father, an Emmy award winning news director. He honed his audio skills singing in a band, and later worked as a lighting and audio technician for a theme park. Within two years he became the lead technician for the entire park, which included a fully operational CNN sponsored TV station, a full theater and a circus. Later, he became the lead lighting and audio tech for one of the Ringling Bros. circuses, with a stint as a clown for the pure joy of performing. It was at Ringling that he met his wife, who he calls the most beautiful, loving, and funny person he has ever met, and who is also the creator of the 3000 Brigade. Trey was a performer with the 3000 Brigade for nine shows, as well as hosting the 3000 Brigade Podcast, while still doing media on the side. Trey currently edits and cleans audio for PLuGHiTz shows and has also been a special events host.
