  • Patent number: 12181255
    Abstract: A method of identifying an object signature in an environment includes acquiring infrared information from the environment using a detection unit in order to obtain an infrared wavelength spectrum associated with the environment. The method further includes selecting three wavelength bands of the infrared wavelength spectrum using a filtering unit and detecting a presence of the three wavelength bands of the infrared wavelength spectrum in the environment by filtering the selected three wavelength bands using the filtering unit. The method further includes determining an intensity indicator for the three selected wavelength bands using a processing unit and classifying the object signature using the processing unit based on the determined intensity indicator in order to identify the object signature.
