Can Computers Catch You Telling a Lie?

A computer that can tell if you are lying or not? Could you imagine if these researchers team up with the Cheetah robot? Sarah Connor is screwed for sure.

Those subjects who successfully lied received a monetary reward for themselves as well as for a group they supported. Those caught lying received nothing and were told that money would instead go to the party or group they opposed. The software compared each subject's baseline eye movement with those observed during the questions about the check. If the computer detected a large deviation, the researchers noted this change and flagged that person as a potential liar.
