1.1 “Brain Fingerprinting”: Detecting Hidden Thoughts

This video examines the technique of brain fingerprinting, which determines whether or not information is stored in the brain by measuring electrical brain waves. Researchers believe that brain waves can reveal whether information is present even when an individual may want to keep it hidden. The video presents a case in which brain fingerprinting was used to determine whether or not an accused man had information about the details of a past crime.
