Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and system for complete automation of the commercial activity of an optical shop. It includes a method for graphic simulation of the process of trying, comparing and choosing eyewear products, controlling the stock of eyewear products, buying the chosen eyewear products and assembling the eyewear products, allowing the concept of a virtual optical shop.
  • Eyewear has become a relevant aspect of modern life.
  • a significant part of the population presents refractive errors (myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia) , that is, optical disturbances that require corrective lenses for obtaining good visual acuity.
  • refractive errors myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia
  • myopia and astigmatism are the most important.
  • Hyperopia causes less visual discomfort and may be partially or totally compensated by the crystalline lens accommodative effort, particularly in youngsters, whereas myopia and astigmatism may not at all be compensated by any ocular physiologic mechanism.
  • Epidemiological surveys indicate that approximately 25% of the population is myope in Western countries and that such percentage increases in some Asian countries.
  • Eyewear plays an important role in individual presentation, which is vital in today's social and economical life.
  • the concept of eyewear is not limited to visual correction, but is also considered an important element of the individual presentation, with influence on his personality. This urges the development of systems allowing more efficient, quick and adequate methods for the process of choosing and buying spectacles frames and corrective lenses, including contact lenses, so that the consumer may be able to go through the whole process without the need to personally visit the optical shop(s), saving him time and money.
  • a shopping center As with any purchase, it is usually necessary to visit a few optical shops, in order to examine several brands and models of spectacles, and to compare them, including as to their price. In a shopping center, this task becomes easier, because one finds a few optical shops, separated by a short walking distance, in the same place. In addition, a shopping center offers parking facilities, other shopping and leisure options, and is safer. However, a shopping center also brings some disadvantages, such as the restriction to the brands handled by their shops as well as a tendency to more expensive prices.
  • the choosing process is normally oriented by the salesman, who separates and suggests models for trial; therefore, the choosing process is limited by the patience, expertise and preferences of the salesman, as well as by the brand and models available at the optical shop;
  • a simulation system for attachment of spectacles m which the state of the face as if wearing spectacles can be made was presented by Mori et al. in a system disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,730,260.
  • an image synthesis processing technique an image of a person who has removed his own spectacles is picked up by a video camera.
  • An image pickup signal of this person's image is A/D converted into a digital signal.
  • This digital signal is stored into an image memory device.
  • a display signal which is derived by synthesizing the data of the person's image stored in the image memory device and the data of a frame of spectacles to be selected is formed.
  • the present invention was developed to solve those drawbacks, enabling the automation of every consecutive step optical shop activity, allowing the conception of a virtual optical shop, which is very important in contemporary life, providing speed, comfort, better and more complete choice, therefore the whole process of choosing and buying eyewear without the need to personally visit the optical shop.
  • FIG. 2 is a graphic diagram of an arrangement of the components of the system for choosing and buying spectacles and color contact lenses (virtual optical shop) , according to the present invention, as it would look in a regular place.
  • FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a flowchart for the operation of the system for choosing and buying spectacles and color contact lenses (virtual optical shop), according to the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 shows, on the display apparatus, a comparative mode, in which it is possible to compare up to four different selected frames, synthesized on the image of the face of the customer, the showcase 17 with some suggested frames and the menu bar 18 .
  • the imaging apparatus usually a video camera, picks up an image of the face of a person, with which the image of the spectacles or the color contact lens is synthesized.
  • the imaging apparatus is not limited to a video camera but may also be another device, such as a image scanner (hand, table or film scanner) .
  • the image memory 6 comprises frame data memory of different brands, models, sizes and colors, corrective lenses data memory (spectacles or contact lenses) of different brands, and colors, adequately prepared to be synthesized with the image of the face of the customer.
  • the operating program 8 controls and coordinates the elements of the system of the present invention and executes every step of the method of the present invention.
  • a communication apparatus 15 usually a modem, to link the computer unit of the system of the virtual optical shop to the distant customer, at the beginning of the process, in case of transferring the image of his face through the Internet, or to link the computer unit of the virtual optical shop either to the laboratory or to the assembling machine, at the end of the process, in order to transfer the purchase order to the laboratory or to expedite the immediate assembling and delivery of the final product, respectively.
  • An assembling machine 16 consisting of a machine in which the lens block is ground or cut in accordance with a frame shape, and in which the finished lens is fitted in a frame previously selected by the consumer.
  • FIG. 2 there is shown a graphic representation of the arrangement of the components of the system for choosing and buying spectacles and color contact lenses (virtual optical shop) , as it would look in a normal commercial place.
  • This unit might be located at varied places, such as a shopping center, the office of an optometrist who dispenses eyewear products, and the office of an ophthalmologist who dispenses eyewear products.
  • An important inventive aspect of the present invention is that the method and system herein described may be comprised in an autonomous satellite unit, outside and independent of the optical shop. At this virtual optical shop unit, the customer would be able go through the whole process of choosing and buying eyewear products (spectacles and color contact lens) , without the need to visit personally one or many optical shops.
  • the image and data memories comprised in the present invention would have capacity to gather information and varieties of eyewear products from an unlimited number of optical shops and brands, so that the customer, using the virtual optical shop as described in the present invention, would be able to simulate a visit to a great number of optical shops.
  • the system presented in this invention may also be reached through the Internet, so that the customer may go through the whole process of choosing and buying eyewear from his personal computer at home. In this case, the customer transfers the image of his face through the Internet, using a communication program and apparatus, the payment is done by credit card and the purchase is sent through the mail.
  • FIG. 3 the process flow for choosing, buying and shipping the spectacles or color contact lenses in the system (virtual optical shop) presented in this invention and configured as above will be described in detail.
  • the initial input process is carried out on the part of the virtual optical shop unit and the numbers following "S" denote step numbers.
  • a second possible method is picking up the image of the face of the customer through the Internet, using a communication program and a communication apparatus. This second possibility allows the customer to go through the whole process of choosing, buying and shipping the spectacles or color contact lenses without the need to go personally to the virtual optical shop unit.
  • the customer specifies the eyewear product he wants to try on, either spectacles (frames and lenses) or color contact lenses.
  • spectacles frames and lenses
  • color contact lenses In case of opting for spectacles, the customer is asked about various preferences concerning the spectacles frame and the spectacles lenses, such as, frame shape, frame material, frame style, suggested price level, type of nasal support, lens material, lens color, and special lens surface treatment.
  • the program selects and suggests, from what is available at its image memory, frames and lenses that best fit both the above cosmetic preferences and the format and dimensions of the face of the customer.
  • the format and dimensions of the face of the customer is analyzed by the operating program on the image of the face of the customer, picked up at the beginning of the method (step 1) .
  • This selection is presented in form of a showcase 17, comprising suggestions of frames in a similar way as a catalogue, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5.
  • the color contact lenses no selection is needed and the showcase includes all available options of colors and brands.
  • the operating program takes some anatomical references on the face of the customer (such as the position the pupils, the interpupillary distance) , that are used to guide the positioning of the selected frame and/or color contact lenses on the face of the person.
  • the operator browses through the suggested frames and/or contact lenses, and the customer chooses which ones to try on.
  • Each chosen spectacles frame or color contact lens may be synthesized on the face of the customer, as shown in FIG. 4 and then either confirmed or discarded, using the available options on the menu bar 18.
  • the image of the spectacles frame when synthesized on the image of the face of the customer, presents an effect of transparency in the optical zone, corresponding to the lens zone, whereas in the region of the frame it covers the face of the customer.
  • the program uses a transparency effect. Both for the frames and lenses, the synthesis and display of the images are done by the use of well known image processing techniques, available in standard current graphic softwares. The customer may test every selected and suggested eyewear product. He also has also the option to browse all remaining eyewear products of the image memory. However, this will be a very tiring option. For each and every product on the display apparatus 13, descriptive data will be shown, including the model, color, material and price. For each item in the showcase 17, the program also shows the options of color, as shown in FIG. 5. Each time the customer chooses a product from the showcase, it is automatically synthesized with the image of the face of the customer, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the image of the frame synthesized with the image of the face may be kept for posterior comparison or immediately discarded. Up to four kept images may be simultaneously compared, as shown in FIG. 5.
  • the customer has the option to restart the whole process, changing his preference options.
  • the customer may then examine them, either each one separately, in the one view screen (FIG. 4), or in the comparative screen, showing up to four different eyewear products simultaneously (FIG. 5) . The customer will then finally choose his preferred product, discarding all the remaining selected ones.
  • a similar routine is done for the trial and choosing of color contact lenses.
  • the customer may try different lenses, varying color and surface treatment, and then confirming his final choice of spectacles frame and lens.
  • the operating program shows the final chosen eyewear product on the face of the customer, either a spectacle frame and lens, or a color contact lens, and there is also the option to show other characteristics, such as material, model, size, color, and price.
  • the customer is then asked to confirm the purchase order. If he does, a purchase order menu comes out on the screen, showing the complete identification of the customer, as entered at the beginning of the process (Step 2) , the complete description of the confirmed product, as well as the image of the face of the customer synthesized with the chosen eyewear product.
  • the operator enters the prescription of the lenses (spectacles or contact lenses) , the price, the way of payment, and the delivery schedule.
  • the computer unit may be connected to an assembling machine, which, once receiving the description of the chosen and purchased product, is able to grind and cut the appropriate lens block, fitting it to the chosen spectacles frame.
  • Such kind of assembling machines are well known in the eyewear market and do not need further explanation as to their principles. In this case, there will be an immediate delivery of the chosen eyewear product (spectacles frame and lens) .
  • the color contact lens does not need to be assembled and, if present in stock, it may be immediately delivered.
  • the computer unit of the virtual optical shop may be connected, through the communication program and apparatus, to a central laboratory, where the purchase order is transferred to.
  • the assembling process is carried out at the assembling machine according to the information of the purchase order transferred from the computer unit.
  • the eyewear product, once assembled, is shipped to the customer.
