Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for an autonomous and fully automated method of validating multi-signature decoys that are configured to release infrared flares at multiple points after launch. In one aspect, a method includes capturing, using at least one image capturing device, raw image data of a launched decoy, the decoy having one or more segments configured to be released after launch and automatically processing the raw image data to (1) identify a release point for each of the one or more segments and (2) identify an infrared signature associated with each release point. The method further includes generating a visual display of the release point(s) of the one or more segments and the infrared signature(s) originating from the release point(s).
