According to tecca.com/news a computer system that detects lies from facial expression and temperature changes is to be tested at a British airport. The system spies on people through a camera, using powerful software that detects the changes in emotions on a person’s face - sudden eye movement, lip biting, heavy breathing, swallowing and rapid blinking. Thermal imaging technology then determines rise in temperature brought about by an increase in blood flow.
So far, test results are pretty good. In a group of 30 to 40 volunteers, the device caught lies two out of three times. The goal is 90% of the time.
Not to be outdone, our government is working on a device that reveals the truth. They are going to test it on Congress and the President. If there is ever any truth detected from any of them, they will be immediately sent for therapy.
I made that last part up. Could you tell I was lying?
