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.

System and method of unique identifying a gemstone

There are provided method for detecting inclusions in a gemstone comprising illuminating the gemstone by successively producing illumination patterns on the gemstone each selected so as to simultaneously provide an internal uniform illumination of one or more predetermined light exit regions of the gemstone, and each being defined by a unique combination of spaced apart light entrance areas illuminated simultaneously from corresponding illumination directions. The method further comprises capturing a plurality of images of the gemstone when illuminated as indicated above, processing the images and identifying inclusions in the images based on non-uniformities in the internal illumination detected in the images. The illumination patterns can be produced by an illumination system configured to selectively illuminate the spaced apart light entrance areas of the gemstone from corresponding illumination directions. The illumination system can be controlled by a controller configured to cause the system to successively produce the illumination patterns. The images of the gemstone can be captured by an image acquisition device and processed by an image processing system configured for identifying inclusions based on non-uniformities in the internal illumination detected in the images.
