18. A detection method comprising:
-
simultaneously acquiring images from a common FOV scene in a short wavelength spectral band and in a long wavelength spectral band, while applying polarization filtering to electromagnetic radiation of the long wavelength spectral band, and generating data indicative of the acquired images; analyzing said data to determine a spectral irradiance distribution between the shortwave infrared and visible spectral bands; detecting one or more sectors of the common FOV scene for which a ratio between an irradiance in the long wavelength spectral band and an irradiance in the short wavelength spectral band exceeds a predefined threshold.
