Ask HN: Is it possible to create a image processing based lie detector?
2 by sumitviii | 5 comments on Hacker News.
Hello, Seeing how most people who guess well if someone is lying do it from 'reading a face', it can be said that there must be auditory and visual cues in a person's expressions that reveal if someone is lying. Is it possible to create a lie detector just based on reading and processing someone's facial expressions and voice? This can have a lot of uses. Courts can know if a defendant is guilty or innocent immediately in almost all cases. Businesses can know if their suppliers and employees are capable. Employees can know if the employer will actually give them the raise that they have been promising. We may all be able to know if our dear politicians are lying. This will improve our lives and it seems like a marketable product. Why hasn't anyone made it so far.
