CES: Femtech goes big in 2020
From high-tech breast pumps, to makeup printers, female health technology has exploded at CES in Las Vegas this year, writes BRYAN TURNER
P&G Ventures is showcasing the development of a handheld inkjet printer called Opte Precision Skincare System, which makes the appearance of skin’s hyperpigmentation disappear and fade spots over time. The device scans, detects, and corrects hyperpigmentation with precision application for smoother skin.
Opte Precision Skincare System first debuted at CES 2019, where the device received an overall positive response and four “Best Of” awards. This year, Opte returns to offer an inside look at how the device has progressed, with two updates:
- It has an improved user interface and upgraded OLED display
- It is more portable and adds connectivity to ensure a better user experience
The Opte wand scans the skin with an enhanced digital camera that captures 200 frames per second and instantly analyses each image using a proprietary algorithm to detect tonal imperfections not visible to the human eye. Using input from the algorithm, it precisely prints via a custom thermal inkjet printer and cartridge, depositing picolitre droplets of Spot Optimising Serum on target areas until there is a perfect colour match with the surrounding skin tone.
