1. A system, comprising:
at least one processor;
a tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium, comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
receive an indication of damage to a vehicle;
instruct one or more electrical property detection systems to acquire electrical property data of a conductive vehicle paint coating disposed on one or more surfaces of the vehicle in response to receiving the indication, the electrical property data comprising electrical property data corresponding to a first surface of the one or more surfaces of the vehicle and electrical property data corresponding to a second surface of the one or more surfaces of the vehicle;
compare the electrical property data acquired by the one or more electrical property detection systems to one or more reference electrical property data;
identify a first magnitude of damage to the first surface of the one or more surfaces of the vehicle based on a first comparison between the electrical property data corresponding to the first surface and the one or more reference electrical property data;
identify a second magnitude of damage to the second surface of the one or more surfaces of the vehicle based on a second comparison between the electrical property data corresponding to the second surface and the one or more reference electrical property data;
determine a vehicle condition based on the first magnitude of damage and the second magnitude of damage; and
generate a vehicle damage assessment output comprising a control signal to the vehicle based on the first magnitude of damage and the second magnitude of damage, wherein the control signal activates one or more locking devices associated with the vehicle, activates lights associated with the vehicle, controls operation of a steering wheel associated with the vehicle, or any combination thereof.
