Abstract

A system for custom manufacturing a film to be temporarily applied to lenses of eyewear is provided. The system includes a measuring unit for measuring dimensions of the lenses, a user-interface for receiving user input pertaining to desired properties of the film, and a film-cutting unit for cutting the film according to the dimensions of the lenses. The system can also include a control unit that is configured to receive the dimensions of the lenses from the measuring system, and transmit information pertaining to the dimensions of the lenses to the film-cutting system. The system can also include a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.

Claims

1. A system for custom manufacturing a film to be temporarily applied to lenses of eyewear, the system comprising:

a measuring unit for measuring dimensions of the lenses;

a user-interface for receiving user input pertaining to desired properties of the film; and

a film-cutting unit for cutting the film according to the dimensions of the lenses.

2. The system according to claim 1 further comprising a control unit that is configured to receive the dimensions of the lenses from the measuring system, and transmit to the film-cutting system information pertaining to the dimensions of the lenses.

3. The system according to claim 1 further comprising a tray arranged in the measuring unit for receiving and holding the eyewear therein.

4. The system according to claim 1 further comprising a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.

5. The system according to claim 1 wherein the film is a multilayer film.

6. The system according to claim 1 wherein the measuring unit includes at least one camera and at least one light source.

7. The system according to claim 1 wherein the user-interface includes a touchscreen for receiving input from a user and displaying an output to the user.

8. The system according to claim 1 wherein the film is adhered electrostatically to the lenses of the eyewear.

9. The system according to claim 2 wherein the control unit includes a processor and a non-transitory memory including computer program code instructions.

10. The system according to claim 3 wherein the tray includes an eyewear-holding fixture.

11. The system according to claim 4 wherein the measuring unit includes at least one camera and at least one light source.

12. The system according to claim 6 wherein the light source is configured to provide any type of light selected from the group consisting of:

visible light, infrared light, ultraviolet light, and combinations thereof.

13. The system according to claim 6 further comprising a control unit that is configured to receive the dimensions of the lenses from the measuring system, and transmit to the film-cutting system information pertaining to the dimensions of the lenses.

14. The system according to claim 13 further comprising a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.

15. The system according to claim 13 further comprising a tray arranged in the measuring unit for receiving and holding the eyewear therein.

16. The system according to claim 15 further comprising a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.

17. The system according to claim 6 further comprising a tray arranged in the measuring unit for receiving and holding the eyewear therein.

18. The system according to claim 17 further comprising a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.

19. The system according to claim 6 further comprising a payment unit for receiving payment from a user.
