The human brain can be fooled, but not this phone. Our mind orientates too much based on the voice, but what a lier may not know is that there are non-perceivable patterns in the sound of a voice that can betray him/her.

A new high-tech mobile phone device can secretly decode,

based on the pitch and sound analysis of the interlocutor's speech, how much passion is in the voice of a lover. The "Love Detector" service is offered by the Korean mobile operator KTF and the technology can clearly show if your lover is speaking honestly and with affection.
"We created this service because we thought people would want to know what others were feeling about them," said Ahn Hee-jung, a KTF official.

Users appealing to this service will see a "love meter" bar on the screen of their handset during their conversation, and subsequently, they will receive a message containing a scientific analysis of the conversation that decodes the levels of affection, surprise, concentration and honesty of the interlocutor.

"The service costs subscribers a flat fee of 1,500 won ($1.59) a month for unlimited use or can be accessed at 300 won for each call," KTF said.

"The caller is paying the money, so the information is provided only to him or her," said Ahn.

In the end, this steals the last bit of "cranial" intimacy, 'cause in the end, can you be honest 100% of the time? I wonder to what point can this technology go? You can already be tagged through a GPS system by your phone (and some cases of jealous lovers doing this have been found). The next step is a phone recording your blood flow indicating how many times you've turned your head on seeing hot persons or how many erections you've had all day round.
