    Abstract: A method for determining a contour of a frame groove in a rim of a spectacle frame includes illuminating the rim, capturing a plurality of images of the illuminated rim from different predetermined perspectives, evaluating the captured images, and determining a spatial curve of the frame groove based on the evaluated images. The rim is illuminated along the entire circumference of the rim by directed illumination. Moreover, the evaluation of the captured images includes assigning each portion contained in the captured images to a respective surface element of the frame groove on the basis of at least one of the following properties: shadowing of the respective portion, brightness of the respective portion and phase angle of the illumination of the respective portion. Moreover, an apparatus, a computer program, a method for grinding a spectacle lens, and a computer-implemented method for determining a geometry of a spectacle lens are disclosed.

    Abstract: A method for adjusting spectacles in which a virtual fitting process of a parametric frame model of a spectacle frame on a 3D model of the head of a person, to whom the spectacles are to be fitted, is divided into two fitting procedures. In a first fitting procedure, the parametric frame model is adjusted to the 3D model of the head to meet specific fitting guidelines for the parametric frame model. Fitting guidelines of this nature may be specified by a frame manufacturer to comply with aesthetic criteria in the fitting. Anatomic fitting is then performed in the second fitting procedure.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for establishing the representation of the edge of a spectacle lens or of a left spectacle lens and a right spectacle lens for a spectacle wearer is disclosed. The method includes: providing image data relating to the spectacle wearer with a worn spectacle frame; calculating information data derived from the image data; calculating a deterministically optimizable cost function linking the information data with spectacle lens data, wherein the spectacle lens data describe the spatial extent of at least one spectacle lens held in the spectacle frame; and setting a curve of an edge of the spectacle lens or of the left spectacle lens and the right spectacle lens by optimizing the cost function.

    Abstract: Centration parameters for fitting spectacle lenses to a predetermined spectacle frame and to the head of a subject are determined with a computer-implemented method. At least two calibrated images, recorded from different recording directions, of the head of the subject wearing the spectacle frame are provided, wherein geometric parameters are established by geometric position determination. The geometric parameters describe the position of the eyes and the geometry of the spectacle frame, and the centration parameters are calculated from the geometric parameters. Further, a three-dimensional model for the spectacle lenses, which are to be received in the spectacle frame, is fitted to the geometry of the geometric parameters that describe the geometry of the spectacle frame.

    Abstract: A virtual try-on process for spectacles includes an approximate positioning and a fine positioning of a spectacle frame on a head of a user. Provided for this purpose are 3D models of the head and the spectacle frame, as well as head metadata based on the model of the head and frame metadata based on the model of the frame. The head metadata contains placement information, in particular a placement point, which can be used for the approximate positioning of the spectacle frame on the head, and/or a placement region which describes a region of the earpiece part of the frame for placement on the ears of the head. A rapid and relatively simple computational positioning of the spectacle frame on the head and a more accurate positioning using a subsequent precise adjustment can be achieved with the aid of the metadata.
