Lie detector from Moscow to sense deceit remotely?
According to the report, the technology was developed as a collateral product during studies into the algorithms of noise suppression in video image analysis

Scientists at MEPhI, a Moscow-based nuclear tech university, have developed a new version of a polygraph, popularly referred to as a lie detector, which is believed to enable users to see whether a person tells the truth or lies by analyzing a videoed interview on a remote basis, the Russian news agency RIA Novosti reported, citing a source in the Russian Ministry of Education and Science.
"Researchers at MEPhI’s Robotics Lab have come up with a lie detector that makes it possible to gauge an interviewee’s physiological responses to questions contactlessly," the source was quoted as saying.
"All a user will need to see whether one lies or doesn’t lie is make a video of an interview with him and then upload the video into special software for analysis," RIA cited the source.
According to the report, the technology was developed as a collateral product during studies into the algorithms of noise suppression in video image analysis. MEPhI is said to have already made a prototype, and is ready to launch the commercialization stage both domestically and internationally.
