Cut Performance
Cut performance is an aggregate diamond characteristic, based on both fire and brilliance. It shows how vibrant the diamond is.

Absolute score (value)

Shows absolute characteristic of diamond (how much fire or brilliance is it).

Relative score (grade)

Valid for Spread v2, Fire, Brilliance and Cut Performance. Shows comparison to standard Tolkowsky round with the same visual area. For example:
Fire absolute = 1.4
Fire Score for Tolkowsky with same area 1.5
Relative = 1.4/1.5 = 0.93
Grade is calculated from Relative score. Grade marker width shows value accuracy.
Fire

Fire is colored flashes that we observe in colorless diamond. Perceived Fire strength depends on colored flashes quantity, size, duration, brightness, saturation and distribution.

Fire is the simultaneous (local) contrast of colour that is observed in a diamond. The contrast of this colored image depends on surrounding areas and on the duration of a colored flash.

If the colored flash is too fast the eye is not able to comprehend its colour and such a flash is perceived as scintillation. If the colored flash lasts too long its total contrast is less than the sum of the contrast of two separate shorter colored flashes of half the lifetime of the initial flash.

For a flash to be perceived as colored it should not be neither too fast, too small or too bright; when combined these factors make a colored flash appears to a human as scintillation and not a fire flash.

Fire Score for Tolkowsky with same area 1.5
Relative = 1.4/1.5 = 0.93
Grade is calculated from Relative score. Grade marker width shows value accuracy.
Brilliance
Diamond brilliance is an illusion caused by the fact that the perceived brightness of the object significantly exceeds its actual brightness. This may occur when several parts of the object with different brightness are observed within a single space-time domain. In the case of a diamond, these parts are its virtual facets. Two virtual facets belong to the same space-time domain when an observer can not separate them due to spatial or temporal limitations of the sense of vision.

Optical Symmetry
Optical symmetry shows how symmetric diamond looks when viewed face-up. Score is calculated from crown (ASET) image for fancy shapes and crown (ASET) and pavilion (Hearts) images for round shapes.

Pavilion Fluorescence
Pavilion Fluorescence images are similar to ones that are used in laboratories to grade fluorescence. They are captured under UV 385nm light.
Face-up Fluorescence
Face-up fluorescence score show percentages of diamond area that belongs to different fluorescence grade for diamond image taken face-up in UV 385nm light.
Pavilion Color
Laboratories are grading color from pavilion view, DiBox 2.0 simulates the same environment that is used in labs for grading.
Table color
Table color image shows diamond color how the consumer sees it. It can differ from lab color grade from pavilion side. DiBox 2.0 captures different table color images, that represents Indoor (without UV), Lab (similar to one that is used in labs for color grading) and Outdoor (sun light) environments. These environments allows to analyse fluorescence impact on diamond color.

Spread v2

Diamond with the same weight can have different visible size depending on their shape. This visual size is described by spread characteristic. Positive spread means that diamond looks larger than Tolkowsky round with same weight, negative means opposite.

In Spread v2, the formula for calculating the relative Spread has been modified so that the resulting value is directly proportional to the absolute Spread, which makes the result more intuitive.

Face-up Fluorescence
Face-up fluorescence score show percentages of diamond area that belongs to different fluorescence grade for diamond image taken face-up in UV 385nm light.
