LCD lie detecting glasses
The beauty of "clarity" in clear-on/ prism-off LCD glasses that 'colorfully' alerts to the presence of "Wolves In Sheeps' Clothing" | |
Conventional audio processing lie-detector technology is incorporated into the ear pieces of seemingly ordinary glasses. The processor detects variances in speech stress and recieves your companies voice thru a mic imbedded in the temple . At the touch of your remote, if detection of the parameters
associated with deception are detected, the processor signals the LCD lenses to "blink" off, causing a slight "halo" prismatic effect to be viewed thru the glasses and alerting viewer.
Inspired by dislike for scent of singed wolf tails
Infra-red lie detection

Euphemism Interpretion of a bristophemism

<lighthearted> Thanks Bristol. |
|
|
<meloncholoy>By your links added, I fear you may have failed to "see with clarity" the beauty of 'these' glasses.</meloncholoy> |
|
|
My links are not indicators of my interpretation of the idea. Just links to possibly related things. |
|
|
[bristolz]: My link added wasn't malisciously intended. Only the first four lines illuminate my satarical interpretation for linked technology that misses the point for this idea. |
|
|
Actually, if you two have finished, bristolz's method of lie detection is supposed to be much more reliable than other available techniques. So, hollajam, bris has not only done you a favor by providing that link, her suggestion makes your hypothetical device more likely to work. |
|
|
Personally, I would prefer a simple blinking red light on the person's nose to a halo. |
|
|
DrCurry, thanks for your diplomacy. You and bristolz are correct that IFR technology is superior. Thank you, bris, for your links.
|

For the purpose of these glasses IFR technology wouldn't be suitable though. I thought the difference in application was more obvious so I interpreted bris' links as a fair game play but undermining the idea since the links appeared with a fish bone. |
|

An IFR cell would have to be constantly attenuated for gulps of coffee, judgment calls of someone blushing at a gentle joke, etc...
It would be arduous to keep it focused on target and "squelched" in sensitivity. IFR applications demand that the wearer postulate questions for yes /no answers possibly alerting the subject. Hypothetically a subject could "saunter" about the room eluding detection. And finally IFR cells are not as discreet as a tiny mic. |

The beauty I was referring to is being able to regain sense of control for the wearer: |
|
|
She toggled the switch 'off' to the LCD lenses. Just as she was coming to suspect, "A colorful liar he (she) is!", she thought with resolve. |
|
|
Intuitively she moved, her strategy fluid and satisfying. Continuing on in the conversation, she began to entertain herself and build momentum. |
|
|
"Toggle off--rainbow halo." "Toggle off -- Rainbow halo" |
|
|
"Toggle--rainbow" Toggle--rainbow" |
|
|
"Rainbow...rainbow... rainbow..." |
|
|
The whimsy of it promoted her emotions and raised her confidence... |
