APPARANTLY, Over 1500 Police Departments Use This to Question Suspects:
Over 1500 Police Departments Use This to Question Suspects - FileCabi.net
Watch the whole video.

I found this video on the filecabi forums. Even this prank machine (HALAL, get it? lol) seems to perform better...

The pentagon has already banned its use in the military. But the police departments are still buying them.
Now, I do know that the police will not use just one piece of evidence on matters like these. And in the trial shown in the video, they used the kid's statement rathar than the machine's report. But, I dont see why they even use something that comes from a "Dr." who got his PhD from some "university." It just uses the "stress" levels recorded in the voice of the subject. Even a polygraph (lie detector), uses more variables like blood pressure, muscle stress etc. and has an accuracy of 85%. This one claims a 98%.

Lets see what you guys have to say about this.

But it clearly doesnt work. What I am trying to say is that its as good as saying "My mobile phone can tell if youre lying. So, now, give me your statement. It will be used in the court." The only advantage of this thing is that it will scare the crap out of the subject and force him to tell the truth if he is really guilty. But this is as acurate as flipping a coin.

The guy in the video began to question his own memories and falsely admitted, "I went to her room, and stabbed her." A week before the trial, the real killer was found through DNA evidence.

This equipment was used in Iraq, and 8 suspected insurgents were set free because they passed the test. I cant see why something like this is used to determine if someone is a terrorist/an insurgent. (Pentagon has banned its Military use now.) But the police departments are buying it at a huge price and 1500 have already got it and are using it.
