Callers using internet phone system Skype who might be tempted to tell a few porkies should beware – the user on the other end may have a lie detector. As Skype is set to offer the KishKish Lie Detector, which is made by BATM, as an add-on for customers.

The software will analyse audio streams over a Skype call in real time and illustrates the stress levels of the other person.

Paul Amery, director of Skype developer programme said:

“This is a really excellent application, and the kind of thing we want to see more of.”

“Lie Detector is the latest in a variety of product in our premium add-on programme which greatly enhance the Skype communication experience.”

No price has yet been set on the application, or a roll-out date.
