A fingernail sleeve device for enwrapping both the finger and the elongated decorated fingernail includes an opening. The opening is circular and is coupled to a surface. The surface has a finger side and a nail side and enwraps the end of a finger. The nail side is positioned upon the fingernail of the finger, and the finger side is positioned against the skin. A cavity protrudes out from an end of the surface and has a downward curvature. An elongated decorated fingernail is nested within the cavity. The cavity defines an enclosed space for the fingernail. The cavity and the nail side of the surface have a hard material to protect the fingernail within the fingernail sleeve device. The soft material facilitates the application of the fingernail sleeve device to the finger.

A production method of a digitized artificial nail for a nail of a user includes the steps of: (a) scanning the nail of the user to construct an irregular digitized user nail model; (b) data sampling to convert the irregular digitized user nail model into a regular digitized artificial nail model which is a regular three dimensional grid surface, and topology deformation of the regular three dimensional grid surface to form a digitized artificial nail model; (c) matching an artificial nail shape selected by the user with the digitized artificial nail model to obtain a desired artificial nail model; (d) customizing the digitized artificial nail model; and (e) three dimensional printing a digitized artificial nail in response to the digitized artificial nail model.

A system and method for manufacturing custom fit artificial nails includes a 3D surface scanning module and a 3D printing module and use thereof. A central processing module is connected to the 3D surface scanning module and the 3D printing module and performs: operating the 3D surface scanning module to obtain an image of a user's hands/feet; processing the image to create an input 3D model of nails of the user; generating an output 3D model corresponding to artificial nails matching dimensions of the user's nails according to the 3D input model; operating the 3D printing module to manufacture artificial nails according to the output 3D model; and generating medical data by correlating the identified features of the user's nails with known medical conditions, in order to diagnose a medical condition of the user which is known to exhibit the identified features as a symptom. Alternatively, or additionally, medicinal ingredient may be included in the artificial nail to treat the medical condition of the user. Embedded devices, sensors or an RFID chip may be integrated into the artificial nail.
