INTRODUCTION

Brain fingerprinting technique was invented by Lawrence Farwell.

the basic function of brain is to store the information.

This technique provides the way to identify a terrorist or other 

dangerous persons or psychological details by measuring the brain-

 print of a person

Defining Brain Fingerprinting

Scientific technique to determine whether or not

specific information is stored in an individual's brain

P300- Specific, measurable brain response

 ± emitted by the brain of a subject who has the

relevant information stored in his brain

The brainwave responses measured using a patented

headband equipped with EEG sensors.

How Does it Work?Probes:

³probe´ stimuli that are relevant to the investigated situationand that the subject. Probes contain information that isknown only to the perpetrator and investigators.

Targets:

³target´ stimuli that are relevant to the crime and are knownto the subject.

Irrelevant Stimuli:

³irrelevant´ stimuli that are irrelevant to the crime and tothe test subject

Brain responses were recorded from the

midline frontal, central, and parietal scalp

locations.

At the end of each test, subjects were given a

written list of all stimulus items and asked to

mark each item.

measurements are recorded in fractions of a

second after the stimulus is presented,before the subject is able to formulate or

control a response.

CONCLUSION

Brain Fingerprinting 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, actualcriminal cases, and other applications.
