Default Simple Lie Detector

Here's a simple lie detector that can be built in a few minutes, but can be incredibly useful when you want to know if someone is really telling you the truth. It is not as sophisticated as the ones the professionals use, but it works. It works by measuring skin resistance, which goes down when you lie.

Default Details of Parts

Here are the details of the specific parts you will need


Part Total Qty. Description Substitutions
  • R1 1 33K 1/4W Resistor
    R2 1 5K Pot
    R3 1 1.5K 1/4W Resistor
    C1 1 1uF 16V Electrolytic Capacitor
    Q1 1 2N3565 NPN Transistor
    M1 1 0-1 mA Analog Meter
    MISC 1 Case, Wire, Electrodes (See Nots)

Notes
1. The electrodes can be alligator clips (although they can be painful), electrode pads (like the type they use in the hospital), or just wires and tape.

2. To use the circuit, attach the electrodes to the back of the subjects hand, about 1 inch apart. Then, adjust the meter for a reading of 0. Ask the questions. You know the subject is lying when the meter changes.

the meter, does anyone know where to get one of the cheap. I went to local electronics store and the cheapest I saw was 5 bucks. What meter did you use OP. or could you cut me a link to some cheap ones.

I would use the meter out of one of those cheap battery testers that are about $4 US i think...

hi it was gr8
but ..is there any chance that our skin resistance does not go down when we lie..if so the lie detector would say a lie...
thanks
bye

Yep

your skin resistance can go down because you are nervous or scared.

So it is hard to tell

What are you talking about?

All the information is on this page and on the schematic except the transistor.

But it is documented on this page.
