    Abstract: Devices and methods of the present technology utilize wavelength-dependent transmittance of 2D materials to identify the wavelength of an electromagnetic radiation. A wide range of 2D materials can be used, making possible the use of the technology over a large portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, from gamma rays to the far infrared. When combined with appropriate algorithms and artificial intelligence, the technology can identify the wavelength of one or more monochromatic sources, or can identify color through the use of a training set. When applied in an array format, the technology can provide color imaging or spectral imaging using different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

    Abstract: Calibration devices for calibrating a camera, systems for computer-aided determination of hair colour information, and methods for calibrating a camera are provided herein. In an embodiment, a method for calibrating a camera includes recording a digital image of a piece of calibration information on a fibre from a plurality of fibres from natural hair or fibres that resemble natural hair by employing a camera. The fibre is identified in the digital image by employing a marker. A plurality of colour values are determined for a plurality of reference colours as the calibration information on the fibre in the digital image, wherein a reference colour value is assigned to each reference colour. The respective determined colour value for the plurality of the determined colour values is assigned to the respectively assigned reference colour value for the plurality of reference colour values.
