  • Patent number: 9726572
    Abstract: A method and system for identifying a given geometrical feature of an optical component or semi-finished ophthalmic lens blank, where an optical component is made of an organic material that can emit light at an emission wavelength ?e when being lighten at an illumination wavelength ?i different from the emission wavelength ?e, a surface of the optical component is illuminated with an incident light beam including at least light at the illumination wavelength but devoid from light at the emission wavelength, light emitted at the emission wavelength by the illuminated surface is collected to build an image of the surface, and the surface image is processed to apply metrics to compare the image with reference data specific to the given geometrical feature.

  • Publication number: 20150226636
    Abstract: A method and system for identifying a given geometrical feature of an optical component chosen from an ophthalmic lens or a semi-finished lens blank for ophthalmic lens. The method includes: providing the optical component made of an organic material that can emit light at an emission wavelength ?e when being lighten at an illumination wavelength ?i different from the emission wavelength ?e; illuminating a surface of the optical component with an incident light beam including at least light at the illumination wavelength but devoid from light at the emission wavelength; collecting light emitted at the emission wavelength by the illuminated surface of the optical component to build an image of the surface; and processing the image via computer elements and applying a metrics to compare the image with reference data specific to the given geometrical feature, and providing an identification output of the given geometrical feature.
