Lie detectors are used in law and legal issues to try to determine if someone is telling the truth or not.
lie detectors
To detect when people lie.
All will tell lie.
More information about lie detectors can be found from reputable sources such as government websites, academic research papers, and psychology publications. Some organizations, such as the American Psychological Association or the American Polygraph Association, may provide information and resources about lie detectors and their use. Additionally, books and articles written by experts in the field can offer in-depth knowledge on the topic.
Because people can train themselves to lie, so that their metabolism (the part the machine measures, such as heart rate and skin temperature) does not change when they lie. Also, the machine might not be calibrated accurately.

Lie detectors, or polygraph machines as they're more officially known, are large contraptions that are filled with buttons, levers, paper, and measuring devices. They have been used for years in law enforcement to detect whether or not someone is actually lying to officials. The reason why people would lie to law enforcement officials is obvious - they committed a crime that they don't want to get caught for. Lie detectors can help solve this problem by asking a person who's strapped to a lie detector several questions and then analyzing the results. However, lie detectors still aren't permissible in court. This means that should a person fail a lie detector, they will not be able to be proven as lying in a court of law. And likewise, a person will not be able to use the results of a lie detector test to prove that they are telling the truth. This is because lie detectors can't actually detect if a person is lying. They can only tell if the person is displaying deceptive behaviour.
No. Although lie detectors seem credible, they can be often faked to produce response opposite to what you want. The lie detectors lack the hard evidence that normal court order can provide (such as blood stain, DNA analysis, etc) and relies solely on how stressed the person is. Even when you didn't commit the crime, extremely high level of stress can tick the lie detector. Similarly, even when you did commit the crime, low level of stress can fool the lie detector. Some people say that lie detectors have a 99% chance of succeeding. It is that 1% that makes the people say "No, we don't want it."
The first smoke detectors are based on optical principles - photoelectric detectors.
Americium become to be largely used in smoke detectors after 1970.
Because, lie detectors are not always 100% accurate. Therefore, people dont tend to use them because they are not always right
