Abstract

One or more digital representations of single- () and/or few-layer () thin-film material are automatically identified robustly and reliably in a digital image (), the digital image () having a predetermined number of color components, by—determining () a background color component of the digital image () for each color component, and—determining or estimating () a color component of thin-film material to be identified in the digital image () for each color component by obtaining a pre-determined contrast value (C; C; C) for each color component and multiplying the respective background color component with a numerical difference between the pre-determined contrast value (C; C; C) for a given color component and about 1,—identifying points or parts of the image with all color components being within a predetermined range of the determined or estimated color component.
