A NEW THERMAL imaging camera system which detects changes in blood vessels and facial movements can tell if a person is lying, according to researchers.
The system was revealed today by researchers at the University of Bradford and the University of Aberystwyth, who claim it could be used in security. The BBC reports that it involves videoing a person while they are speaking and using high-res thermal imaging to detect lies by watching for changes in expression, breathing, blinking and facial blood vessels.
The researchers involved say it works in about two-thirds of cases; testing so far has involved willing participants.

My wife came with this technology as standard.
If we could use this while watching politics, viewing figures would go through the roof.
It would depend on them giving an answer to the actual question they were asked though….
i like your answer Guinness F.. really good!
And as for tribunals……..?!!?!
I expect it would blow up if it was used in the dail
Lies and cheating is passed down through the years from our trusted servants in powerful positions. It is part of the fabric in our society now and 90% of people have these values. The main colours are the church, the civil servants, bankers, politicians, auctioneers, solicitors and barristers, developers, dole cheats,insurance companies, etc
Make it 95%.
Generic politicians are bad comment
Fit out the Dail and Seanad quickly.
I think this technology should be kept from woman… For their own safety, if ya know what I mean.
