And, if some aggressive technology entrepreneurs get their way, the technology will become a reality, coming soon to courts and interrogation rooms near you.
What makes this possible is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which has already transformed the world of neuroscience. …
Steven J. Laken, founder of Cephos – whose corporate motto is “Our Business Is the Truth,” and whose mission statement reads, “We believe Truth is among the most valuable of commodities” – claims a 93 percent success rate in determining truth-telling from lying. (Humans are typically able to tell the difference between truth and lies about 50 percent of the time, and traditional lie detector machines average around 85 percent.)…
Jonathan Moreno, a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and author of Mind Wars: Brain Research and National Defense, estimates that at least 50 U.S. labs began studying the use of neuroscience and lie detection after 9/11, many of them funded by the Department of Defense.
