Abstract: The invention is a method, process and computer program to automatically create a customized three-dimensional artificial nail object based upon an actual/existing digitized nail surface. This particular invention generates the overall desired three-dimensional nail surface by using key reference points contained in the digitized nail surface to automatically create new three-dimensional data along supplied parameters. The application of the invention results in a wide scope of possible implementations including a use for creating artificial fingernails and artificial toe-nails.

Abstract: The invention is a method, process and computer program to automatically create a customized three-dimensional artificial nail object by welding based upon an actual/existing digitized nail surface. This particular invention generates the overall desired three-dimensional nail object by taking the digitized nail surface and welding it to a preexisting desired nail tip thus creating a preferred artificial nail object. The application of the invention results in a wide scope of possible implementations including a use for creating artificial fingernails and artificial toenails.

Abstract: A system and method for creating precision fit artificial fingernails is disclosed. Specifically, a system is disclosed that utilizes a scanned and digitized nail surface to form a precision fit three dimensional digitized artificial nail object that can be used to direct a machining device that either creates an artificial fingernail from blank stock, or to machine a custom mold that can be used to make multiple artificial fingernails having the same shape.
