Traditional mooncakes encounter the “Metaverse” and NFTs

With the rise of concepts such as the “Metaverse” and “Blockchain,” many traders offer “digital mooncakes,” “NFT mooncakes,” and “blockchain air mooncakes” during this year’s mid-fall festival. These products rely on blockchain technology to create unique digital certificates for specific “mooncake” products, enabling authentic and credible digital issuance, purchase, collection, and usage while protecting their digital copyrights.

ATOS Q realizes highly accurate ‘3D scanning’ of mooncakes

3D scanning is a key technology for generating virtual scenes of the metaverse and acquiring digital twin models. Using the 3D scanner  ATOS Q, the surface texture of the mooncake can be captured with high precision and a 1:1 mooncake 3D model can be obtained.

The 3D scanner ATOS Q, with its easily interchangeable measuring lenses, is adapted to the measurement needs and inspection tasks of different industries.

Level up inspection possibilities with ZEISS INSPECT software

Using the professional software ZEISS INSPECT can also carry out 3D reconstruction, process the graphics, design the mooncake decoration, and then combined with a 3D printer, 3D personalised mooncakes can be freshly baked.
