From 2012 to 2017 SPTpol, the 1st polarization sensitive camera on the SPT, took observations of the CMB. In 2017 SPT-3G, a new camera with 2,700 tri-chroic pixels and 16,200 transition edge sensor bolometers was installed on the SPT. I will summarize some of the recent results using SPTpol data while highlighting the first transient search through CMB data. I will then discuss the technology of the SPT-3G camera along with its current status and science goals.
