A Two-Input PolygraphArchana VenkataramanChristopher BuenrostroIsaac RosmarinOutline Introduction Design Overview The Physiological Sensors The Digital Decision-Making Unit (DDMU) The Output Display ConclusionIntroduction The polygraph detects stress-related physiological responses commonly linked with deception Modern-day polygraphs rely on 4 major variables: The Foundation of a lie-detector examination is in its structure Environmental Setting Experience and Conduct of Examinator Questions: Control, Irrelevant, and Relevant Decisions are based on the assumption that an innocent subject will react more strongly to the control questions and a guilty subject will react more strongly to the relevant questionsIntroduction The project uses 2 inputs to make decision–heart rate and skin conductivity Heart speeds up during times of emotional stress Perspire during times of emotional stress –increases conductivity Project divided into three sections The Physiological Sensors The Digital Decision-Making Unit The Output DisplayInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterInput DevicesInputs DDMU VideoData Acquisition Flow DiagramHeart Rate MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectDesignated Lab Kit RAM Refresh BlockAnalog-to-Digital ConverterSkin Conductivity MonitorProbe PatchesAttached to Test SubjectAnalog-to-Digital ConverterElectrocardiogram Heart Monitor*Images from http://ramseyelectronics.comInputs DDMU VideoRamsey Electronics ECG1CSkin Conductivity Monitor*Images from http://vismod.media.mit.edu/tech-reports/TR-542.pdfwith credit to Rosalind W.
