Abstract: An electronic computer-implemented and interactive platform is described, which permits the offer, sale, and distribution of diamonds by sellers to purchasers and, as a result, into the overall diamond marketplace. Each diamond is scanned in order to create a three-dimensional (3D) virtual model that can include images and/or other data that digitally identifies that diamond, providing a “fingerprint” of the diamond. The purchaser may have highly confidential and proprietary information that specifies the critical details of its manufacturing process for each type of cut of polished diamond, referred to as polished diamond parameters (PDPs). A planning system is used to offload time consuming and computationally expensive planning operations from the manufacturer (or other purchaser), and does so prior to a purchase. The planning system and a matching process are used by the platform to enable the data in each PDP file to be applied to the 3D virtual model of each individual diamond.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to diamond trading system and method for trading diamonds. The system and method may allow rough diamond sellers to list their diamonds for sale individually and enter an ask price for each listed diamond. The system and method may also allow rough diamond buyers to submit their polished diamond parameters and orders. The order may contain a bid price. The system and method may then determine if any of the listed diamonds match to the polished diamond parameters and ordering requirements and if any of the matched diamonds have a bid price at or higher than a ask price. If there is a match and the bid price is at or higher than the ask price, the system and method allow the transaction to proceed.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for use in diamond processing. Diamond parameter information is obtained and information for numerous diamonds can be aggregated into a database. At least one candidate diamond for potential recutting is identified based on processing the received measurement information by applying logic based on selection criteria stored in the memory. A virtual model is then generated of the at least one candidate diamond based, at least in part, on the received measurement information. The virtual model is analyzed by applying recut criteria to determine a parameter indicative of recut potential and this is output for use in selecting diamonds for a recutting operation. By reducing the requirement to transport diamonds to an analysis site, significant energy, processing, and environmental benefits may be achieved.
