Abstract

There is provided a data server capable of improving a quality of a spectacle lens as a finished product and reducing a cost, even if a semi-finished lens having a complicated shape is used, the data server including: a specification data acquisition unit configured to acquire specification data of a semi-finished lens transmitted from a first terminal; a specification data storage unit configured to store the specification data acquired by the specification data acquisition unit; and a specification data output unit configured to output the specification data stored in the specification data storage unit, to a second terminal.

Claims (34)

1 . A design data providing system, comprising:

a data server, a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal connected via a communication line,

the data server comprising:

a specification data acquisition unit configured to acquire specification data of a semi-finished lens;

a specification data storage unit configured to store the specification data;

a specification data output unit configured to output the specification data stored in the specification data storage unit, to the second terminal;

a counting unit configured to count output frequency of the specification data;

a use fee calculation unit configured to calculate a use fee of the specification data based on the output frequency; and

a use fee transmission unit configured to transmit information regarding the use fee calculated by the use fee calculation unit, to the first terminal,

the first terminal comprising:

a specification data transmission unit configured to transmit the specification data to the data server; and

a use fee reception unit configured to receive the information regarding the use fee transmitted from the use fee transmission unit,

the second terminal comprising:

a download unit configured to acquire the specification data;

a design data generation unit configured to generate design data of the spectacle lens based on the specification data; and

a design data output unit configured to output the design data to the third terminal,

the third terminal comprising:

a design data acquisition unit configured to acquire the design data outputted from the design data output unit.

2 . A data server, comprising

a specification data output unit configured to output specification data of a semi-finished lens;

a counting unit configured to count output frequency of the specification data;

a use fee calculation unit configured to calculate a use fee of the specification data based on the output frequency; and

a use fee transmission unit configured to transmit information regarding the use fee calculated by the use fee calculation unit.

3 . A design data providing method, comprising:

outputting specification data of a semi-finished lens to a first terminal by a data server;

calculating a use fee of the specification data by the data server based on the output frequency;

transmitting information regarding the use fee, to a second terminal by the data server;

generating design data by the first terminal based on the specification data; and

outputting the design data to a third terminal by the first terminal.

4 . A specification data providing method, comprising:

outputting specification data of a semi-finished lens by a specification data output unit;

counting output frequency of the specification data by a counting unit;

calculating a use fee of the specification data by a use fee calculation unit based on the output frequency; and

transmitting information regarding the calculated use fee by a use fee transmission unit.
