The Molecular Assembler/Disassembler (MAD)
A molecular assembler/disassembler (MAD) is a powerful device that allows for the conversion of electrical energy to material energy and vice versa. This process is controlled via digital 3D blueprint known as a schematic. A schematic generated through use of a full resolution camera or similar sensory aparatus is called a scan. A scan that results in the disassembly of the object being scanned is called a full scan and one that does not is know as a light scan.
Rules & Regulations
Because MADs have the potential to destroy the economy in ways never before possible, they are subject to heavy regulation:
- Schematics, including scans, are subject to standard copyright law unless otherwise stated.
- A full scan must be made any time an object is disassembled.
- A full scan may not be deleted until it is used to assemble the object that it describes.
- A full scan may never be copied or altered.
- A full scan may not be bought/sold except as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token).
- A full scan that is used to assemble an object must be deleted upon completion of the assembly process.
- A schematic that is not a full scan may only be used to assemble an object if the raw materials required to physically construct the object by hand are provided in the form of a full scan.
- When a schematic that is not a full scan is used to assemble an object, the full scans of the required raw materials must be deleted upon completion of the assembly process.
Those found in defiance of the aforementioned regulations will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
