An incredible story of innovation and hope

In 2020 the inventor Cristian Fracassi and his team were able to transform a diving mask into a respirator through the use of 3D printing, solving the respirator shortage crisis that hit hospitals during the coronavirus epidemic and saving countless lives.

“In one breath” NFT collection narrates this incredible story, featuring digital artworks created from the original 3D files of the valves and diving masks.

An international symbol of life-saving innovation

The achievements of Cristian and his team have become an international symbol of life-saving innovation, to the extent that the Charlotte valve is now on display at the most important museums in the world, such as the MoMA in New York and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

Now you can help us write the next chapter of this story. Proceeds from NFT sales will support Cristian and his team in developing new innovative projects for hospitals

The Amazing Tale Narreted by 7 NFT Artworks

The Call

The artwork represents the beginning of the story, when "Nunzia Vallini", editor of Brescia’s newspaper, calls Cristian to ask him if 3D printing could be used to replicate a valve necessary for Covid treatments, as demand for respirators in hospitals is rising fast and valves necessary for their functioning are starting to run out. Despite the difficulty of the request and the responsibility arising from the fact that failure would cost lives, Cristian decides to put himself on the line and accepts the challenge.

The Research

The artwork represents the experimentation and research of Cristian and his team in an attempt to recreate the valve needed for Covid treatments with 3D technologies. The pressure at this stage of research is very high, as a solution is needed in the shortest possible time and a non-functioning valve would cause the death of the patient. Through Reverse Engineering, the team is able to reproduce a three-dimensional model of the valve, which, due to lack of time and urgency, is tested directly on a real patient.

Victory

This artwork represents the moment when Cristian and his team succeed in the feat of re-creating the valve needed to operate the covid respirators using 3D printing.The doctors test the 3D printed replica of the original valve on a real patient and, after what seems like an interminable wait, give Cristian and the team the verdict. The valve works and patients are able to breathe! The happiness of success soon gives way to another urgency. Hospitals need hundreds of 3D-printed valves immediately, so Cristian and the team get back to work to make them.

A New challenge

The artwork represents the moment when Cristian and his team, after having successfully created the 3D replica of the valve needed to operate the covid respirators, are presented with a new challenge.Renato Favero, a retired doctor, calls Cristian and presents him with a new problem to solve. Soon, it was not only the valves that would run out, but also the respirators. After giving the team a lesson in anatomy and explaining how the respirators work, Renato extracts a common diving mask from a duffel bag and challenges Cristian to transform it into a respirator.

Back In Action

The artwork represents the moment when, after meeting with Renato Favero, Cristian and his team get back to work in order to find an effective solution to his proposal and solve this new impossible challenge. Again, through research and experimentation, the team tries to develop a valve capable of transforming an ordinary diving mask into a respirator.The pressure on the team is very high, as time is short and there is no room for error. If the mask doesn't work, the patients won't be able to breathe.

The Miracle

The artwork represents the success of Cristian and his team in the heroic feat of creating the Charlotte Valve, able to turn an ordinary diving mask into a respirator. The mask is tested on a real patient and it works!

Sharing

The artwork represents the power of sharing in times of need. The Charlotte valve works and patients are able to breathe. Hospitals from around the world are now in need of thousands of valves, but Cristian and the team cannot keep up with all the demand on their own.Time is short and they need to find a solution quickly. They have the ingenious idea to create a website that allows users to download the 3D file of the valve, so that anybody with a 3D printer can print it .Cristian therefore asks people to share the news and to print the valve to donate it to the hospitals and health centers. The news spreads all over the world and hundreds of thousands of valves are donated to hospitals by companies, individuals and makers, saving countless lives.

The sale of the NFTs will fund Cristian's new inventions for the health sector

It has been found that most children who sleep with an oronasal mask are prone to a number of consequential conditions, namely: craniofacial syndromes, facial abnormalities and a receding jaw and narrow palate.

The problem to be solved is that specialized facilities for the elderly have to buy many models of wheelchairs to ensure that they have the right chair in the house for every patient. This means that they have to buy 10 times as many wheelchairs as they actually need, with considerable costs and space.

The problem to be solved is that the kidney tumour's surgery is one of the most complex and delicate to carry out. What we are trying to create is a surgical instrument which can facilitate and lengthen this surgery.

F.A.Q

The term NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token.

An NFT is a one-of-a-kind, non-replicable and non-substitutable item, thus a 'digital' asset representing 'real' world assets such as works of art, text, audio, video or images.

A wallet is required to interact with the blockchain (i.e. your ID card and wallet to interact with the blockchain).

In our situation, we'll just utilize Metamask, a program that allows us to establish our own wallet quickly and effortlessly.

At this site (https://metamask.io/download/), you can download the Metamask version that is compatible with your device.

When you first start Metamask, you'll be given a Seed Phrase, which is a string of words that will be used to retrieve your wallet: keep it somewhere safe and don't show it to anyone! Your wallet will be accessible to anyone who knows your Seed Phrase.

After that, you'll be prompted to create a password, which will be necessary in order to access the application or extension.

Once the initialization is complete,

You may start using Dapps, or decentralized applications, now that you have a wallet. Instead of registering and authenticating for apps, you simply connect your Metamask wallet to the platform and start using it right away.

In the case of Metamask, you'll need to have the extension installed on your browser (desktop) or use the app's internal browser (mobile) to connect your wallet; otherwise, you won't be able to do so.

Opensea is one of the most well-known apps for selling and buying NFTs, and it is on this marketplace that you may purchase In One Breath's NFTs.

If you try to visit it, you'll notice a wallet icon in the header; use Metamask to connect yours!
