Multi-modal systems extract information about the environment using specialized sensors that are optimized based on the wavelength of the phenomenology and material interactions. To maximize the entropy, complementary systems operating in regions of non-overlapping wavelengths are optimal. VIS-IR (Visible-Infrared) systems have been at the forefront of multi-modal fusion research and are used extensively to represent information in all-day all-weather applications.
