System and method of unique identifying a gemstone
There is provided a computerized system and method of generating a unique identification associated with a gemstone, usable for unique identification of the gemstone. The method comprises: obtaining one or more images of the gemstone, the one or more images captured at one or more viewing angles relative to the gemstone and to a light pattern, thus giving rise to a representative group of images; processing the representative group of images to generate a set of rotation-invariant values informative of rotational cross-correlation relationship characterizing the images in the representative group; and using the generated set of rotation-invariant values to generate a unique identification associated with the gemstone. The unique identification associated with the gemstone can be further compared with an independently generated unique identification associated with the gemstone in question, or with a class-indicative unique identification.
IMAGING ASSISTED SCANNING SPECTROSCOPY FOR GEM IDENTIFICATION
Systems and methods here may be used for automated capturing and analyzing spectrometer data of multiple sample gemstones on a stage, including mapping digital camera image data of samples, applying a Raman Probe to a first sample gemstone under evaluation on the stage, receiving spectrometer data of the sample gemstone from the probe, automatically moving the stage to a second sample, using the image data, and analyzing the other samples.

METHOD OF MEASURING CONCENTRATION OF NITROGEN IN DIAMOND AND APPARATUS THAT MEASURES CONCENTRATION OF NITROGEN IN DIAMOND
A method of measuring a concentration of nitrogen in diamond includes a first step, a second step, and a third step. In the first step, diamond is arranged in the inside of an integrating sphere. In the second step, visible light is emitted to the inside of the integrating sphere and the visible light that is reflected by an inner surface of the integrating sphere and passes through or is reflected by diamond arranged in the inside of the integrating sphere is received. In the third step, the concentration of nitrogen in diamond is calculated based on data on received visible light and a mass of diamond.
