Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for an on-line preview of an in-store jewelry item. A request from a remote device for a live display of a particular jewelry item is received. In response to the request, live images captured by the microscope while the microscope is aimed at the particular jewelry item are transmitted to the remote device. The microscope is adjusted in response to receiving the commands from the remote device.
Abstract:
Apparatus, article of manufacture and methods for recommending a jewelry item that comprise receiving, at a jewelry interface, user-input data regarding: a selection of at least one jewelry item. The at least one jewelry item comprises a plurality of characteristics. User-input data also includes an indication of a level of importance for at least one characteristic of a jewelry item. Each level of importance corresponds to a co-efficient. An ideal profile is computed based in part on the selection of the at least one jewelry item and the indication of the level of importance, an ideal profile. A matching algorithm is applied to a plurality of jewelry items stored in an inventory. Based on the matching algorithm, at least one recommended jewelry item is identified as most closely matching the ideal profile. An indication of the at least one recommended jewelry item is transmitted.
Abstract:
Apparatus, article of manufacture and method for designing a jewelry setting that comprise displaying on a display a plurality of components. Each component corresponds to a section of a jewelry setting. A selection of at least one component that corresponds to a first section of the jewelry setting is received. An electronic template of the jewelry setting is generated. The electronic image comprises the at least one selected component. The electronic template is transmitted to a remote device.

Abstract:
Systems, methods and apparatus for in-store preview of jewelry items that comprise detecting that a RFID tag that is coupled to a jewelry item is within a threshold vicinity of a RFID reader. The information about the jewelry item is transmitting to an electronic device that is located proximately to the jewelry counter. Beacon technology is employed to communicate with a customer's mobile device. Pass application technology is employed to transmit records to and from a customer and local retailer.
