1. A system comprising:
an imaging system, wherein the imaging system comprises an infrared imaging module configured to provide infrared image data of a scene comprising a camouflaged target in view of the imaging system; and
a logic device configured to communicate with the imaging system and a supplemental sensor system configured to provide supplemental sensor data of the scene, wherein the logic device is configured to:
receive the infrared image data of the scene from the imaging system and the supplemental sensor data of the scene from the supplemental sensor system;
determine an estimated target spatial profile corresponding to the camouflaged target based, at least in part, on the infrared image data of the scene; and
determine one or more target profile anomalies based, at least in part, on one or more discrepancies between the estimated target spatial profile and the supplemental sensor data of the scene.
