The research question
Does one candidate trigger a differential recognition and trauma-linked response in the victim or witness?
Aggressor Detector & Trauma Response Assessment is an individual victim- or witness-recognition protocol that compares responses across multiple candidates. It combines Eye Tracking, pupillometry and facial-expression analysis to identify differential recognition, attention, avoidance and fear / threat-related responses. The output is an investigative signal for follow-up; it does not classify a candidate as the aggressor from a single physiological or facial response.

Measurement follows the task
The technology path shown here is the approved structure for this service. The exact protocol is configured around the research question, environment and participant flow.
Candidate-specific fixation, latency, revisits, avoidance / re-engagement and pupil-response dynamics.
Time-linked fear / threat, surprise, anger, disgust and other facial-response patterns.
Typical protocol · Criminology
How this study is executed.
The protocol below reflects the service definition developed for Neuro Garage. Final details are confirmed before execution.
Establish the legal / investigative question and construct the candidate set under an approved recognition procedure.
Standardize candidate presentation conditions such as size, lighting, background, exposure time and order to reduce presentation bias.
Record a baseline before candidate exposure.
Present candidates under a randomized or otherwise legally approved sequence while continuously recording gaze, pupil dynamics and facial response.
Measure candidate-specific fixation latency, dwell, revisits, avoidance / re-engagement, pupil dilation and facial fear / threat response.
Capture explicit recognition and confidence when the investigative protocol requires it.
Integrate the multimodal response into a candidate differential-response profile and issue an investigative follow-up alert when warranted.
