| Title: | DECEPTION DETECTION VIA FUNCTIONAL NEAR-INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY | |||||||||||
| Abstract: | Functional near-infrared (fNIR) neuroimaging is used to detect deception. Oxygenation levels of portions of the brain of a subject are imaged via fNIR spectroscopy. The measured oxygenation levels are utilized to determine if the subject is telling a lie or a truth. In an example configuration, oxygenation levels in the inferior and/or middle prefrontal cortical areas of the brain, such as the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal and/or inferior frontal cortex, are measured to determine if a subject is lying relative to telling the truth. An example system includes a portable, flexible, belt like sensing device that is positioned proximate the subjects scalp. Sensed neural activity is transmitted either through wired or wireless means, to a processor for analysis of the sensed neural activity. Accordingly, results can be made available after post-test averaging, or in real time, while the subject is being tested. | |||||||||||
