1. THE BEGINNING

This innovation initially came to life when…

I was watching young women in nail bars playing mobile 3D games, such as Candy Crush, whilst getting their nails did in teched-up salons with wifi access. The question raised was: how to make glam wearable technology products for young women – that would enable Candy Crush 3D style bling holograms to fly directly out of their fingers, and how this experience of hologram content popping off own fingers and self could be shared to major social networks. How to get girls to, collect, share and purchase the holograms AND the collectable nail accessories.

2. WHAT & HOW

The purpose of this innovation is to…

bring to the world a fashionable en-trend wearable technology for young women. Whilst providing a new content distribution platform for original 3D holograms – directly off our end users’ fingers! 

It does this by…

releasing seasonal and exclusive fashion nail accessories that only interact with Metaverse’s proprietary tech 3D social mobile app. When the patterned collectable nails are worn and scanned with our app it triggers a myriad of hologram virtual bling, which can be bought, traded, and shared. The experience of wearing holograms can be shared in real-time to major social networks. 

3. PURPOSE & BENEFITS

This innovation improves on what came before because…

Nail strips, Acrylic nails, and traditional nail polish treatments have never been combined directly with a sparkly interactive hologram app, that places digital content as an extra onto the nail surface. AR (augmented reality) nails finds a social and commercial application embedded in nail art culture and nail industries.

Its various benefits to the customer/end-user include…

Metaverse Nails are a fashionable glam tech product and brand that lets our users share photos of their augmented nails to major social networks. In real-time. Users can adorn their online and offline identity with unique blinged-out customisable AR content.

4. COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

In the past, this problem was solved by…

Google Glass and Hololens cyborgian lenses. Kitsch t-shirts with logo branding. Metaverse Nails are a fashion-forward reality wearable that positions artfully designed digital holograms directly into the hands and onto the fingers of those who will desire AR: the female mobile generation.
