- the central unit 10 is used to maintain a database of images and related information for an inventory of gemstones and also functions as the hub of a communications network serving the capture units 20 and the remote display units 30.
- Information on new gemstones to be added to the central unit*s database is input via the capture units 20.
- Information on gemstones is retrieved from the database and displayed by the display units 30.
- the central unit provides a database of images and related information on a large number of gemstones.
- the key components of the central unit 10 are a computer processor 11 with a data storage device 12, such as a magnetic or optical disk suitable for storing digital images of a large number of gemstones.
- the computer processor 11 is a personal computer (e.g. an 80386 or 80486 personal computer or other computer/database system) with a large magnetic hard disk drive (e.g. a 1.2 gigabyte hard disk) .
- a personal computer e.g. an 80386 or 80486 personal computer or other computer/database system
- a large magnetic hard disk drive e.g. a 1.2 gigabyte hard disk
- Each gemstone image can be stored in a separate file on the hard disk.
- the hard disk also holds a database with additional information on each gemstone (e.g.
- the database allows the central unit to maintain inventory information on available gemstones, and also permits users to query the database for gemstones meeting selected criteria (e.g. identify all sapphires in inventory between 1.0 and 1.5 carats).
- One or more conventional modems 13 allow the central unit 10 to serve as the hub for a wide area network ("WAN") in which the various capture units 20 and display units 30 are remote nodes.
- WAN wide area network
- images of gemstones can be captured at any of a plurality ⁇ of capture units 20 located at remote locations (e.g. facilities where gems are cut and polished, or at wholesaler facilities) .
- These images and related information concerning the gemstones at the remote site are then transferred over a telecommunications link (e.g. telephone lines) via modem for storage by the central unit 10.
- a record is added to the central unit's database for each gemstone.
- a file is also created for each gemstone's image with an appropriate pointer or file identifier included in the database record to permit the image to be accessed in association with the database record.
- images and related information for gemstones can be transferred from remote capture units by means of other types of telecommunications links, or by transfer of removable magnetic media (e.g. floppy disk) or optical media (e.g. CD-ROM) between the capture unit 20 and the central unit 10.
- the central unit 10 shown in FIG. 2 is equipped with a floppy disk drive 14 to accommodate the transfer of data by this means.
- the central unit 10 is also equipped with a high resolution display 15 (e.g. a Sony Trinitron Multiscan HG monitor or a Sony Trinitron CPD-1302 monitor) to allow the gemstone images and related information to be viewed, verified, and edited after receipt.
- a computer keyboard 16 is used for editing, and for adding or updating information on individual gemstones.
- the central unit also has an audio interface 17 to allow a segment of music and/or voice to be recorded in association with each gemstone.
- the audio segment is converted to digital format and stored on the data storage device 12 (e.g. optical disk) of the central unit 10.
- a pointer or a file identifier is stored in the database to allow the appropriate audio segment to be accessed and replayed in association with display of each gemstone.
- the central unit includes software to provide essential inventory and accounting functions. This enables the central unit to process orders for gemstones and to process database queries from system users.
- the accounting and inventory control features provided by the central unit include:
- a printer 18 attached to the central unit processor 11 prints these invoices, reports and other paperwork for the system.
- a fax 19 can be attached to the central unit processor 11 to enable direct transmission of facsimiles of images from the database with associated information on selected gemstones to remote fax machines.
- the central unit maintains system security by requiring passwords for each authorized vendor or purchaser.
- the central unit 10 has a single computer processor 11. It should be understood that the various functions of the central unit can be delegated to a plurality of processors structured in a local area network (LAN) .
- LAN local area network
- one processor can function as a dedicated host for communications with the capture stations 20.
- a second processor can be used as a dedicated host for communications with the display stations 20.
- a third processor can be dedicated to accounting and bookkeeping functions
- the configuration of the LAN can be readily rearranged (and additional processors added, if necessary) to accommodate the dynamic needs of the system.
- Capture Unit The capture unit 20 shown in greater detail in FIG. 3 is used to capture and initially store images of gemstones to be added to the database maintained by the central unit 10.
- the capture unit 20 is intended primarily for remote operation.
- Operation of the capture unit is controlled by a computer processor 21 (e.g. an 80386 or 80486 personal computer) .
- a video camera 22 e.g. an Hitachi Z-l video camera with a 60 mm macro lens
- a videographics adapter board e.g. a 16/32 bit Targa video board
- the video camera 22 is mounted on a stand allowing adjustment of the distance between the camera and the gemstone.
- the stand also allows adjustments in the intensity and filtering of one or more light sources used to illuminate the gemstone.
- the stand has a translucent non- reflective surface to support the gemstone with image reference lines.
- the capture unit 20 also has a conventional DOS monitor 25, a keyboard 23, and a mouse 231 to permit the operator to control operation of the capture unit, and for manual entry of additional data (e.g. type, color, weight, cut, clarity, price) for each gemstone.
- a second, high resolution display 25 is used to verify and edit the gemstone images produced by the video video camera 22. This information is read by the computer processor 21 and stored on the disk 27 in association with the appropriate image file for each gemstone.
- an electronic scale 24 e.g. a Mettler CM200 scale with 0.001 carat precision
- attached to the computer bus can be employed to automatically provide the computer processor 21 with the weight of each gemstone.
- this data is transmitted to the central unit 10 for incorporation into the central unit's database. Transmission of this information can either be accomplished over a telecommunications link (e.g. over telephone lines, or dedicated fiber optic lines) via modem 26, or by physical transportation of removable media 28 (e.g. by floppy disks or a removable optical disk) containing the data from the capture unit 20 to the central unit 10.
- the computer processor 21 of each capture station 20 uses data compression software (e.g. PKZIP.EXE, a public domain file compression utility program) to compress each file before it is transmitted to the central unit 10. This step can result in a 4-to-l to 20-to-l reduction in file size.
- data compression software e.g. PKZIP.EXE, a public domain file compression utility program
- the capture unit 20 should maintain a log of the information on each gemstone transmitted to the central unit 10.
- the capture unit 20 can also be employed to maintain inventory and accounting information.
- a printer 29 is therefore attached to the capture unit to print the log and any required inventory or accounting reports.
- a label printer attached to the capture unit's processor can be used to print an adhesive label bearing a unique bar code for each gemstone.
- This bar code label is affixed to the plastic bag or other container holding the gemstone.
- a bar code reader connected to the computer processor can then be used to scan the labels of all gemstones shipped from the capture unit to verify the accuracy and completeness of all shipments.
- the bar code reader can also be used to rapidly scan the labels of all gemstones in inventory at the capture unit for verification against the inventory data maintained by the computer processor.
- the capture unit 20 is geographically remote from the central unit 10. Although this is a significant feature of the present system, it should be expressly understood that the capture unit 20 can be combined in a single facility with the central unit 10. Furthermore, a video camera can be directly interfaced to the central unit's processor 11 to effectively yield many of the same capabilities in a single unit.
- FIG. 4 provides a schematic block diagram of a typical remote display unit 30.
- a computer processor 31 e.g. an 80386 or 80486 personal computer
- a modem 32 is employed for communications with the central unit 10 over a telecommunications link. Images and related information for gemstones can be retrieved from the central unit's database, stored on the display units hard disk 37, and displayed on a high resolution display monitor 38.
- the display unit 30 includes software to create a user-friendly interface to access the central unit 10; browse the database of available gemstones in the central unit's database; submit queries to the central unit to select gemstones meeting certain criteria; retrieve and display images of selected gemstones from the database; and submit purchase orders to the central unit.
- This user interface will typically include a computer keyboard 35, a mouse 39, and a conventional DOS monitor 34 to provide user-friendly graphical interface to control operation of the display unit.
- a second high-resolution monitor 38 e.g.
- a Sony Trinitron Multiscan HG monitor or a Sony Trinitron CPD-1302 monitor is interfaced to the processor bus by a Targa videographics board, and is used to display the gemstone images retrieved by the display unit 30 from the central unit 10.
- a suitable display unit can be made by minor modifications to a laptop personal computer, such as a Toshiba T5200 or T5100 laptop computer equipped with a DAC graphics board.
- the display unit 30 can be equipped with an audio card connected to the computer bus, a digital-to- analog converter, and a speaker 36 to enable the display unit to play back a segment of audio data (music and/or voice) retrieved from the central unit's database for each gemstone.
- the image files can be compressed by the capture stations 20 before transmission to the central unit 10. It may also be desirable to similarly compress the files containing the audio segment and other information associated with each gemstone. To the extent such data has been compressed either by the capture unit 20 or the central unit 10, the display unit must reverse this process (i.e., uncompress) the files received from the central unit before the data can be used by the display unit. This can be accomplished by software, such as the public domain utility known as PKUNZIP.EXE.
- the preferred embodiment of the display unit 30 allows rapid two-way communications between each display unit 30 and the central unit 10 via telecommunications links as shown in FIG. 1. This may not be technically or economically feasible in some situations.
- an alternative embodiment of the display unit 30 minimizes (or completely eliminates) use of the telecommunication link by relying on removable media 33 (e.g. tape cartridges, floppy disks, removable magnetic disk cartridges, CD-ROM, or removable optical disks) for distribution of copies of the central unit*s database of images and related information to each display unit.
- removable media 33 e.g. tape cartridges, floppy disks, removable magnetic disk cartridges, CD-ROM, or removable optical disks
- Each display unit 30 can then query and view gemstone images from its own local copy of the database. Orders for gemstones can be placed with the central unit 10 by means of a telecommunications link as before, or by mail, fax, or telephone call. Updated copies of the entire database or selected portions of the database can be distributed from the central unit to each display unit on a
