When applied in an array format, the technology can provide color imaging or spectral imaging using different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Method for selecting an elastic venous restraint orthosis intended to be slipped onto a lower limb of a patient. Acquisition of a photograph representing the skin of the limb and a calibration map including one or more calibration zones. The calibration map is placed on the limb in a position termed the “acquisition position.” Calibration of the photograph by the calibration zone or zones, in such a way that the representation of the skin on the photograph exhibits a calibrated colour. Selection, as a function of the calibrated colour, by computer and from a set of colours of a tone chart, of a tone chart colour, preferably of the tone chart colour closest to the calibrated colour, termed the “optimal colour,” and then determination, by computer, of an orthosis colour as a function of the tone chart colour selected. Selection of an orthosis exhibiting the orthosis colour.

The 1,8-naphthalimide derivative is easy to prepare, and is an enhanced Cu.sup.2+ fluorescent probe, which can detect Cu.sup.2+ by two wavelengths and be applied to almost-all-water systems. According to atitration experiments and blank experiments at 392 nm and 754 nm, the detection limit of the 1,8-naphthalimide derivative of the present invention for Cu.sup.2+ is 2.6368×10.sup.−7 mol/L and 2.0156×10.sup.−7 mol/L, respectively, indicating that same can perform quantitative detection for Cu.sup.2+ with a high selectivity and a high sensitivity by using two wavelengths. In addition, a pH colorimetric switch based on 1,8-naphthalimide can rapidly and reversibly respond to a pH by means of three ways: a maximum absorption wavelength, absorbance and color change. Same has a narrow switching pH range, a good selectivity and a high sensitivity, can be used in almost-all-water systems.

Two corresponding color patches are displayed on two image displays until adjusted by a viewer to match visually to a common color. Two sets of code values rendered on the two corresponding color patches on the two image displays are identified. Two sets of tristimulus values for the viewer are determined based on the two sets of code values rendered on the two corresponding color patches on the two image displays. The viewer's color matching function are generated based on the two sets of tristimulus values. The viewer's CMF is used in image rendering operations on a target image display.
