BRAIN FINGERPRINTING
What is Brain Fingerprinting?
Brain fingerprinting is a computer based technique for determining a certain information stored in the brain by measuring brain waves.
Brain fingerprinting is a Technique used to identify a terrorist or other dangerous person by measuring the “brain print” of that particular person..
Quick Overview
• Invented By Dr Lawrence A. Farwell.• It’s a patented technique of proven
accuracy in US government tests.• Ruled Admissible in one US Court as
scientific evidence.• It has a record of 100% Accuracy.
TECHNIQUE
Types of Stimuli UsedProbeso Life-experience relatedo Relevant to the investigated event -recognizable and
noteworthy only for the subjects who had participated in the event (MERMER)
o Indistinguishable from the Irrelevants for a subject who is not knowledgeable about the situation under investigation
Targets o Push a button to indicate known image o Since the relatively rare Targets are singled out in the
task being performed, the Targets are noteworthy for the subject, and each Target stimulus elicits a MERMER
Irrelevant Stimuli o information relevant to the crime that the suspect claims
to have no knowledge of
Information is Absent Information is present
Instrumental requirements
•Personal Computer •A Data acquisition board •A Graphics card for driving two monitors from one PC• A four-channel EEG amplifier system •Software developed by the Brain Fingerprinting Laboratories for data acquisition and analysis.
How it works ? The person to be tested wears a special headband with electronic sensors that measure the EEG from several locations on the scalp. The subject views stimuli consisting of words, phrases, or pictures
presented on a computer screen.
ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY
Electroencephalography:
Electroencephalography (EEG) is the measurement of electrical activity produced by the brain as recorded from electrodes placed on the scalp.Scalp EEG is collected from tens to hundreds of electrodes positioned on different locations at the surface of the head.EEG signals(in the range of milli volts) are amplified and digitalized for later processing.
Brain Fingerprinting in India
Brain Fingerprinting in India The Gujarat government has constituted an eight-member 'ethics committee' headed by a high court judge, to monitor and establish newly acquired techniques of crime detection. The technique being perused by this committee at this juncture is the use of BRAIN FINGERPRINTING on the accused an suspects in India.
Anand Yagnik, an advocate at the Gujarat High Court and a member of this committee said : The ethical considerations to be kept in mind while conducting new techniques of crime detection like the brain fingerprinting.

Scientific Result
Comparisons with other technologies
• Fingerprints and DNA are available in only 1% of crimes. The brain and the evidence recorded in it are always there.
• No questions are asked and no answers are given during Farwell Brain Fingerprinting.
• Brain Fingerprinting technology depends only on brain information processing, it does not depend on the emotional response of the subject.
Other Applications
There are several other areas in which Brain fingerprinting can be used to make life easier and can aid mankind in many ways. Key fields where brain fingerprinting can be used are:
• Counter terrorism
• Criminal justice
• Medical
• Advertising
Conclusion
• It would be inappropriate to generalize the results of the present research because of the small sample of subjects.
• But the 100% accuracy and high confidence level of the results, however, provide further support for results from previous research using brain MERMER testing.
