A: Smart glasses for exams refer to wearable technology that some students attempt to use during tests to gain unauthorized access to information. These devices may include features like internet connectivity, voice assistants, hidden displays, or camera functionality. However, using such devices during proctored exams whether in person or online is almost universally prohibited and considered academic misconduct.
Most testing organizations, educational institutions, and online proctoring services explicitly ban any form of wearable technology during exams, including smart glasses, smartwatches, and Bluetooth-enabled earpieces. Proctors are trained to detect and prevent cheating through visual monitoring, room scans, AI based behavior analysis, and secure browser environments.
Q: How does AskProctor address the use of smart glasses during exams
A: AskProctor employs advanced proctoring protocols to detect and deter the use of unauthorized devices, including smart glasses. Their system combines live human proctoring, AI powered video analytics, and pre exam room scans to identify suspicious objects or behaviors. Candidates are typically required to show their testing environment and remove all wearable technology before the exam begins. This ensures exam integrity and a level playing field for all test takers.
