Heartbeat Attached to Personal Identification

Abstract

Monitoring the achievements of other scientific fields and to implement their results - such as, for example, 3D imaging systems or the possibilities of DNA based personal identification methods - into its own toolkit is one of the priority tasks of law enforcement and its personal responsibility forces, in order to support successful completion of its everyday duties. Measurement of the electric functioning of the human heart is one of these new scientific achievements that may give a lead on credible and reliable identification of a certain person. The application possibilities of this procedure in the fields of safety engineering, personal and primarily law enforcement should definitely be subject of criminalistics analysis. This study aims to introduce the application possibilities of electronic signals generated from the heart rate and the results of measured heartbeat from the aspects of law enforcement.
