World's Most Accurate Lie Detector

An anonymous reader points to this "interesting article about the world's most accurate lie detector. It seems they are getting real close to Voigt-Kampff. Watch out fellow replicants."

Now's the time to confess, while you still can!

I'm the one, it was me all along, I put the rubber snake on Mrs. Montgomery's chair in Grade 3!

I invented New Coke!

I shot J.R.

I throw myself on the mercy of the /.court

"Tell me about CowboyNeal"

CmdrTaco: Describe in single words. Only the good things that come into your mind. About CowboyNeal.

Me: CowboyNeal, ... I'll tell you about CowboyNeal.

Is it too late?

Since this works with just a video of the face, is it too late to hook it up to the State of the Union broadcast?

Or maybe they could just apply it during a replay.

a perfect lie detector. I involved in a research which used mild electric shock when the lie detector returned confidence level below a certain theshold. We found that mild electric shock could really improve the accuracy.

Later I found that if I inverse-proportioned the intensity of electric shock to the confidence reading of the lie detector the accuracy would sky-rocket.

Unfortunately, my research was called to stop when a prof. used an obvious lie on my prototype. The confidence level reach 0 and the detector output maximum electric shock which knocked the prof. 10 feets away from the desk.

Damn. it was that tyrannic dictatorship destroyed a great research like that! :)

Uhh..
