Brain Fingerprinting

---

Brain fingerprinting is an objective, scientific method to detect concealed information stored in the brain by measuring electroencephalographic (EEG) brain responses, or brainwaves, non-invasively by sensors placed on the scalp. The technique involves presenting words, phrases, or pictures containing salient details about a crime or investigated situation on a computer screen, in a series with other, irrelevant stimuli.

HOW DOES BRAIN FINGERPRINTING WORK?

- Brain fingerprinting technique uses event-related brain potentials to determine what information is stored in a person's brain. This is based on how the brain processes specific information such as the features of a crime that are presented on a computer screen. After that the electrical signals produced by the neurons in the brain are detected by the electrodes present on the suspect's scalp and those signals are obtained by a graph on the computer of operator. By analyzing that graph we can conclude that whether the suspect has the knowledge about the crime or not.

- When the brain processes information in specific ways, characteristic brainwave patterns can be detected through computer analysis of the brain responses. When an individual recognizes something as significant in the current context, he experiences an "Aha!" response. This response is characterized by a specific brainwave pattern known as a P300-MERMER. Brainwave responses are analyzed to determine whether or not the specific information tested is stored in the brain of the subject or not.

APPLICATIONS

The application of brain fingerprinting is to detect the P300 as a response to stimuli related to the crime or other investigation situations, e.g. a murder weapon, victim's face, or knowledge of the internal workings of a terrorist cell.

ADVANTAGES

In comparison to witness testimony, it provides an objective, scientific way to detect the record of the crime stored in the brain directly. Witness testimony provides an indirect, subjective account of this record. Witnesses may lie.

DISADVANTAGES

It cannot be applied to every case or to every suspect because there may be cases in which the investigators may not be knowing anything about the crime scene while the criminal disappears from the hearing. So, no conclusion can be deciphered.

CONCLUSION

- It is a revolutionary new scientific technology for solving crimes, identifying perpetrators, and exonerating innocent suspects, with a record of 100% accuracy in research with US government agencies, actual criminal cases, and other applications.

- The technology fulfills an urgent need for governments, law enforcement agencies, corporations, investigators and crime victims.
