Systems and methods for hyperspectral imaging based authentication

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided herein for hyperspectral imaging based authentication. An example method includes receiving check data associated with at least a first user and extracting one or more field details from the check data. By leveraging a hyperspectral imaging module, the method further includes generating hyperspectral image data associated with the one or more extracted field details and determining one or more spectral characteristics associated with the one or more extracted field details based on the hyperspectral image data. The method further includes determining a tampering indication for the check data based on the one or more spectral characteristics. The spectral characteristics may include one or more reflectance values associated with extracted field details across a plurality of spectral bands.
