Fansea is dedicated to providing digital clones of iconic artifacts in the digital realm, with services ranging from sports to gaming.Fansea's digital cloning services are implemented by scanning and digitizing physical objects, enabling users to keep these assets as collectibles, display them in virtual spaces, and trade them on the NFT marketplace.
Problems Faced
“With the rapid advancement of digital technology, we have the ability to gradually narrow the gap between the digital and the real.”
——Alexander Schlicher
Fansea CEO and Founder
Currently, the digital asset space is facing a problem: the separation between the virtual and real worlds. This separation has resulted in digital collectibles falling short of providing a real tactile experience. With these shortcomings in mind, Fansea had to look for an innovative technology that would not only enable digital assets to exist in the digital realm, but also transform them into physical models that can be perceived and experienced in the real world.
Mimaki 3D Printing Solves Problems
“We wanted a device like the replicator in Star Trek, and after evaluating a variety of 3D printers, we decided that Mimaki's 3D printing quality was the best.”
——Alexander Schlicher
Fansea CEO and Founder
To solve this challenge, Fansea chose the Mimaki 3DUJ-553 3D printer.
The first step is to obtain a license for sports or gaming-related intellectual property, for example from teams such as the Argentina national soccer team or AC Milan. Then, the Fansea team or the client selects a specific item to be replicated, which can range from sneakers to medals. These items are then scanned with precision and transformed into digital 3D assets ready for subsequent 3D printing.
With the Mimaki 3DUJ-553 3D printer, Fansea is able to produce models that are both detailed and colorful. The printer is capable of using a mix of transparent and colored inks to achieve the desired transparency and color effects. Each model is 3D printed using a water-soluble support material, which not only ensures the accuracy of the model's details, but is also easy to remove and avoids damage to the model during the production process.
Once printed, each model undergoes a special process that includes the use of colored light-curing resins and protective varnish treatments to ensure its durability and surface quality. In addition, Fansea provides each limited edition virtual and physical piece with a certificate of authenticity powered by blockchain technology, ensuring the uniqueness and traceability of each piece.
效果
“With the rapid advancement of digital technology, especially the increased realism in areas such as video games, the line between digital and reality is becoming increasingly blurred. By creating concrete physical models, we enable consumers to get closer to their digital assets.”
——Alexander Schlicher
Fansea CEO and Founder
By employing the exceptional full-color 3D printing capabilities of the Mimaki 3DUJ-553 3D printer, Fansea has successfully materialized a variety of valuable digital assets, such as the World Cup-winning jerseys of Argentina's national team and fine replicas of the athletes' distinctive footwear, not just as formal replicas, but by accurately capturing the unique characteristics and details of each item, ensuring a high degree of similarity between the digital assets and their physical models.
The use of this technology expands beyond memorabilia in sports and gaming. From iconic props from movies to precious historical artifacts, Fansea enables fans and collectors to own copies of these valuable digital assets both in the virtual world and in real life. This opens up a passionate new frontier for a growing demographic in the digital world, enabling a deeper integration of the digital and real worlds.
