Lie Detector

Introduction:-
 The instrument typically used to conduct polygraph tests consists of a
physiological recorder that assesses three indicators of autonomic arousal: heart
rate/blood pressure, respiration, and skin conductivity. Most examiners today use
computerized recording systems.

Objective:-
 To find whether a person is lying or not.

Materials Required:-
 Arduino Uno, LED, Resistor 2k, Cable, Jumper wire(Male to male, Female to
Male, Female to Female), Buzzer

Principle:-
 Our Skin Provides a medium for us to experience the sense of touch, our skin
also changes conductivity depending on many things like our mood. By
Connecting an Arduino Uno to a computer with Graphing tool and touching
the two wires.
 We can start by asking the person some simple questions that we know the
answers about and they will most probably tell truth about like ‘What is your
name?’ or ‘Where do you live?’ to get a base line and from there we can start
asking questions they may lie about.
 If they lie, they would be feeling nervous and then we can know that by color
change and buzzing in the device.
 If the green LED is lighted, it says that the person’s resistance is above 20
and the person is telling the truth.
 If the yellow LED is Lighted, it says that the person’s resistance is above 45
and then we are not sure if he is lying or not.
 If the red LED is lighted and the buzzer is buzzing, it says that the person’s
resistance is above 60 and the person is lying.

Procedure: -
 Connect A long piece of cable to Arduino analog pin 0
 Connect the 2k resistor to ground and the the extended
analog 0 pin
 Connect A long piece of cable to Arduinos 5 volt pin
 Connect the anode (long leg) of the green led to pin 2
and the cathode (short leg) to ground
 Connect the anode of the orange led to pin 3 and the
cathode to ground
 Connect the anode of the red led to pin 4 and the
cathode to ground
 Connect the Anode of the Buzzer to pin 6 and Cathode
to ground.

How to Use Arduino Lie Detector:-

 Plug Arduino to Computer and open Arduino IDE.
 Enter the Code and Upload it.
 Open Serial Plotter.
 Place your fingers on the wire and check whether the graph is coming or
not.
 If the graph is coming you are ready to use the lie detector.

Observation:-
 When the person’s answer is truth, the light switched to green.
 When the person said something that was a lie, a red light came on and a
buzzer made a noise.
Utility:-
 We can use this device to find out if the suspect is telling the truth or not.
