Southborough-headquartered Brainwave Science, LLC and Raksha Shakti University at Ahmedabad have announced their signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to work together in the research, testing, support and training for patented Brain Fingerprinting Technology.
“Our technology has application in the areas of counter–terrorism, national security and law enforcement. A leading Southeast Asian Country awarded a contract to train and implement Brain Fingerprinting Technology even before its official launch in 2014. This confirmed that there lies a huge gap of innovation in law enforcement, counter terrorism and counter intelligence agencies particularly in the field of investigation or interrogation.” said Krishna Ika, Founder and CEO of Brainwave Science.
“Brainwave Science and Raksha Shakti University bring together a compelling mixture of research and development, operating experience, design, manufacture and innovation, we are extremely pleased and delighted by this collaboration, we initially approached premier investigation agencies like the CBI and the NIA in India who then referred us to RSU,” added Krishna Ika.
Dr. S L Vaya, director of R&D who is considered one of the pioneers in forensic psychology in India, said that their primary agenda is validation of the system in the Indian context.
“We have two PhD candidates who will be working on forensic and clinical aspects of the system and its applications. I am hopeful that the installation of these systems will not only help the researchers, but also investigation agencies from the state,” he said.
Vikas Sahay, additional director general, RSU, said that they are hoping to take the technology to wider police audience to help current crime detection and prevention efforts.
While in India, the Brainwave Science team conducted a workshop and demonstration for aspiring lawyers and judges at Unitedworld School of LAW as well as Gujarat National Law University. fii-news.com
