•Narcoanalysis
•Brain finger printing
•BEOS
•Hypnosis
•Prelimininary test (interview procedure to victim
and suspect, eye witness, ear witness)
•reference
•Also known as Lie Detector.
•Polygraph testing combines interrogation with physiological
measurements obtained using the polygraph, or polygraph instrument,
a piece of equipment that records physiological phenomena—typically,
respiration, heart rate, blood pressure, and electrodermal response
(electrical conductance at the skin surface)
•History-(1902)James McKenzie
(1921)John Larson
(1925 )Leonard Keeler
•It is based on principle of psychosomatic interaction of an individual
•Analysis through polygraph chart .
•Sunanda pushkar case

neurosciences Bangalore ,India.
 Brain electrical oscillation signature (BEOS) is used to assess
the suspect to find out whether he or she involved particular
criminal act or not
 It is a technique for extracting an electrophysiological
signature of an experience during its remembrance the
electrical oscillations/activity related to the remembrance is
called the signature
 The results of BEOS are obtained in form of electrical activity
from the brain related to probes the brain waves indicates
that the brain has some information in regard to this items
