Brain Fingerprinting Technology Overview

1. Brain fingerprinting is a new lie detection technology that measures brain wave responses when a person is exposed to crime-relevant words or images on a computer screen. 2. It has proven to be 100% accurate in over 120 tests, including tests on FBI agents and for the US military. 3. The technology works because the brain generates unique brain wave patterns when encountering a familiar stimulus, which can reveal if a person was involved in a crime even if they try to suppress the memory.

BRAIN FINGERPRINT TECHNOLOGY[DOCUMENT TITLE]

ABSTRACT:
Brain Fingerprinting is a new computer-based technology to identify the perpetrator of
a crime accurately and scientifically by measuring brain-wave responses to crime-relevant
words or pictures presented on a computer screen. Brain Fingerprinting has proven 100%
accurate in over 120 tests, including tests on FBI agents, tests for a US intelligence agency and
for the US Navy, and tests on real-life situations including felony crimes. Brain fingerprinting
is based on finding that the brain generates a unique brain wave pattern when a person
encounters a familiar stimulus Use of functional magnetic resonance imaging in lie detection
derives from studies suggesting that persons asked to lie show different patterns of brain
activity than they do when being truthful. Issues related to the use of such evidence in courts
are discussed. The author concludes that neither approach is currently supported by enough
data regarding its accuracy in detecting deception to warrant use in court. In the field of
criminology, a new lie detector has been developed in the United States of America. This is
called “brain fingerprinting”. This invention is supposed to be the best lie detector available as
on date and is said to detect even smooth criminals who pass the polygraph test (the
conventional lie detector test) with ease. The new method employs brain waves, which are
useful in detecting whether the person subjected to the test, remembers finer details of the
crime. Even if the person willingly suppresses the necessary information, the brain wave is sure
to trap him, according to the experts, who are very excited about the new kid on the block.
