Photographic Mirror Assembly™

The Vision Council says that 63.7% of adults Americans need prescription eyeglasses, which accounts for approximately 166 million people. There are also 25.3% of children between the ages of 2-17 who wear eyeglasses or contact lenses. When it comes to picking out a new pair of eyeglasses, it can be a long and tedious process. Often consumers need to sort through and try on dozens of different pairs of eyeglasses to find the ones they wish to purchase. As technology improves to provide options such as online virtual mirrors where consumers can virtually try on eyeglasses, there are more options available to consumers to help make this process easier. The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ seeks to challenge the industry standards with its innovative design to provide a better overall experience for finding that perfect pair of eyeglasses.

The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ is a photographic mirror assembly that is used to help consumers virtually try on multiple pairs of eyeglasses in person. Users can utilize a remote control to adjust the mirror, turn on mirror lights on or off to provide better lighting, and capture an image to be used to virtually try on eyeglasses. This image is then translated onto an LCD screen the is layered in front of the mirror to provide the consumer with a view of multiple angles. The consumer can then cycle through multiple different pairs of eyeglasses to see how they would look on their face. This provides a smooth and efficient overall experience for consumers.

PRODUCT DETAILS

The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ is a photographic mirror assembly that includes a mirror comprised of multiple panels that are movably coupled together. This allows the consumer to see themselves from multiple angles. A camera is integrated into the mirror to capture images of the consumer. The camera can overlay various eyeglasses onto the consumer to facilitate the consumer viewing themselves wearing various eyeglasses prior to purchasing eyeglasses. A mounted actuator is coupled to the mirror spacing the mirror an adjustable distance from the vertical support surface. A remote control is in wireless Bluetooth communication with the camera and the actuator to facilitate the user to remotely control operation of the camera and actuator.

The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ revolutionizes the process for consumers to choose out the perfect pair or pairs of eyeglasses. With its sleek, innovate, easy to use design, it will be highly sought after for optical retailers to add to their stores. The process is a consumer steps up to the mirror to position themselves how they wish to view themselves. Then they use the remote control to adjust the actuator to move the mirror closer or further away as needed along with turning the lights around the mirror on or off to provide a better image. Once the consumer is ready, they can click the capture image button to have the mirror quickly take an image of themselves in the mirror. Once the image is taken, it is processed and displayed on the high-quality LCD screen overlayed on the mirror. Finally, consumers can then choose through various eyeglasses to model on their image on the high-quality LCD screen to view how they would look if they wore them in person. This process is easy and straightforward for consumers to use with minimal skill needed to operate properly.

The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ allows consumers to clearly and accurately view how eyeglasses will look on them in a virtual manner. The high-quality camera will provide a clear image to display on the LCD screen overlayed in front of the mirror. The goal is to have the image on the LCD screen look as close to as accurate as possible to how the consumer looks when they stand in front of the mirror. This is much more reliable than using a cellphone or desktop camera to virtually try on eyeglasses at home that may have blurry pictures or an odd zoom setting on. The various lights around the mirror can be turned off or on to help ensure a clear image is taken. The lights are placed all around the mirror to ensure optimal lighting and reduce any shadows from occurring due to having a light source only come from one angle instead of multiple angles. When it comes to virtually trying on the eyeglasses, consumers can easily switch through different designs of eyeglasses at the mere click of a button. When new eyeglass designs become available, the catalog consumers can choose from can easily be updated to ensure they have the latest fashionable pairs to choose from.

The goal of using the Photographic Mirror Assembly™ is to provide an effortless and seamless experience for consumers to try on multiple pairs of eyeglasses. This is often a tedious process where consumers must physically try on dozens of eyeglasses and look in a mirror to see the results. The eyeglass showrooms can take a while to walk through and gather the eyeglasses to try on along with the process of physically donning and removing each pair from the consumer’s face with sometimes questionable sanitation of other consumers touching the product prior without proper sanitization. This product allows consumers to have a more hands off approach, so they don’t have to worry about the cleanliness of physically trying on multiple pairs of eyeglasses. It is also operated in an optical store allowing consumers to work with a licensed optician in person to ensure they have any questions answered and pick out an appropriate pair of eyeglasses for their prescription compared to virtual options that offer little to no help during the purchasing process. It is also beneficial for optical retailers since they will most likely need less eyeglasses in stock in their showroom along with have to worry less about cleaning, fixing, and replacing eyeglasses that get used and damaged during the physical trying on process.

The Photographic Mirror Assembly™ is the perfect addition to any optical retail store. It is cost-efficient to purchase and easy to set up for consumers to use. It can be effortlessly mounted by the actuator to any wall or other vertical surface to allow the mirror to be secure and ready to go for consumers to use. The high-quality materials it is made of will ensure this product will last a long time and stay in great shape during regular use. It is also great for manufacturers with its cost-efficient design and simple manufacturing process.
