Terra Cor Diamonds NY launches patented mobile diamond grading app

Terra Cor Diamonds N.Y. has announced they have been granted a patent for grading diamond clarity on a smartphone. You can download the app to try the patented process grading of diamonds and get an objective clarity grade result in seconds.

“We Launched ‘TIME’, an Acronym for Terra Cor Inclusion Mapping Evolution,” said Aniket Parikh inventor and Founder/CEO of Terra Cor. “It is an evolutionary leap in inclusion mapping, taking the diamond grading process to the next level. We thought it was about TIME we brought an end to the decades old debate of a diamond’s subjective quality grading.”

According to Parikh, all that is needed is a face up image of the diamond, taken by your smartphone with a macro lens or a high-end imaging system. Take the image using the smartphone app or upload it via the desktop version and the app will find and grade the clarity of your diamond in a few seconds, all right on your smartphone.

“We have been granted a patent (US PATENT #11,132,779) for a totally novel method of imaging, finding, extracting hundreds of inclusions, reflections and other features found in diamonds,” he added. “Our patented process, along with our AI based neural networks, will further find, and gauge the intensity, color, opaqueness, or translucency of each of these hundreds of inclusions and their visual correlation and their impact based on their location, color and size, etc. Our Neural Networks run millions of calculations, finally giving as an output – a completely objective clarity grade to a diamond. This will clearly help determine the quality and value of a diamond more accurately.”

The (BETA) version of Terra Cor Diamonds’ smartphone application is free to download and try, for a limited time, from the Apple or Google stores under “Terra Cor Diamonds” or visit the company website.

“Ours is possibly the first and only process being granted a patent that allows us to present an objective grade to the diamond’s clarity. With this we will be able to achieve significantly higher grading accuracies. Possibly even judging how an inclusion’s pattern affects the human eye,” says Parikh.

“Unlike many other AI based and other grading systems, we show the process of how we find and grade the inclusions on the diamond image itself. Making it very easy to trust for an average diamond buyer. Even a retail store owner or wholesaler, who can now easily judge which diamond from a multitude of similarly graded gems, but not having similar inclusion patterns or pricing or laboratory grading best fits their clarity and price criteria.

“We see this as your pre-grading, pre-pricing go-to tool. It will make it very easy to search and find a gem of your choice rather than go through the cumbersome searches one must make today. You will be able to find and match your diamonds quickly and easily with our AI based visual search process.”

Aniket Parikh is the inventor of this technology and the Founder/CEO of Terra Cor Diamonds N.Y., with a vision to create a “Gem Technology for the New Generation” for gems and jewelry professionals and lovers. He is the 3rd generation of a family of diamantaires and mine owners and is on the board of the IDCA N.Y. (Indian Diamond & Color stone Association N.Y.).

The Story Behind the Stone: Metal Mashup

Reading Time: 6 minutes I have to confess I just learned about electrum when this topic crawled up on my radar. We love the wide range of jewelry metals today that give consumers tremendous options for creating the exact piece of their dreams. Metal alloys are some of the more exciting variations for imaginative jewelry designers to work with. These options better reflect the tastes of a client and help them to personalize their jewelry, making it truly unique to them. Brooch with a griffin, from the necropolis of Kameiros, Rhodes, c.  625–600 BC (Louvre). Natural Alloy One topic catching my eye at the moment is a rare and naturally occurring metal alloy – electrum. This word, electrum may be uncommon to modern society, but it’s a Latin word derived from the Greek electron mentioned in the Odyssey referring to a metallic substance consisting of gold alloyed with silver. Electrum was usually called white gold in antiquity. But more accurately it was described as pale gold since ...
