Systems and methods for using multispectral imagery for precise tracking and verification

A system for authenticating different works, the system comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• capture visible properties of a received work revealed by a first range of electromagnetic spectrum;
• capture non-visible properties of the received work revealed by a second range of electromagnetic spectrum;
• determine a texture of a particular material about an outer surface of the received work from the non-visible properties;
• detect a number of layers applied over the particular material at different points across the outer surface of the received work based on the non-visible properties;
• determine an amount of deviation between the received work and a reference image, against which to authenticate the received work, based on differences between the visible properties, the texture, and the number of layers at different points across the outer surface of the received work and corresponding points of the reference image;
• and
• verify authenticity of the received work in response to the differences between the visible properties, the texture, and the number of layers across each of the received work and the reference image being within a defined threshold.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:

• capture visible properties of a received work revealed by a first range of electromagnetic spectrum;
• capture non-visible properties of the received work revealed by a second range of electromagnetic spectrum;
• determine a texture of a particular material about an outer surface of the received work from the non-visible properties;
• detect a number of layers applied over the particular material at different points across the outer surface of the received work based on the non-visible properties
• determine an amount of deviation between the received work and a reference image, against which to authenticate the received work, based on differences between the visible properties, the texture, and the number of layers at different points across the outer surface of the received work and corresponding points of the reference image;
• and
• verify authenticity of the received work in response to the differences between the visible properties, the texture, and the number of layers across each of the received work and the reference image being within a defined threshold.
