AI Proctored Exams- Secure Online Assessments with DigiProctor

Students can now take exams from the comfort of home, securely monitored by AI proctoring.

Homes have become the new test centres and AI the invigilator. Students are now writing examinations from their respective homes while being monitored remotely via their webcam.

Writing examinations remotely with AI proctored exams has become the new normal, ensuring integrity and transparency.

Unlike regular exams, which are conducted on pen and paper or on a computer in a designated test centre, AI proctored exams involve students taking tests on their personal laptops at home. Artificial Intelligence is leveraged to detect any suspicious activity, such as physical movement of the face, no face in front of the camera, multiple faces detected, or cheating aids like mobile devices and headphones.

AI and advanced technologies constantly monitor student behaviour. If a student tries to search for answers online or shifts their attention to a phone, they receive warnings, and their trust score- a measure of exam credibility- decreases. During the exam, AI algorithms continuously analyse the captured feeds to calculate the real time trust score. It happens in real time, allowing the system to make intelligent decisions instantly. A low score indicates possible misconduct.

In case of a power cut or low internet connectivity, the student can restart the test from where they left off, ensuring no data or time loss. Institutions can control the number of allowed restarts while offering students a grace period to complete exams in case of disruptions.

In addition to automated scoring for objective questions like MCQ, MRQ, and True/ False, DigiProctor supports onscreen marking of subjective questions. Students can upload images of their handwritten answers using a mobile device. This feature is especially useful for disciplines like engineering, architecture, and liberal arts.

For example, if a question requires a student to:

  • Draw a circuit diagram
  • Solve a math equation
  • Write an essay type answer

They can simply upload the image of their response. Evaluators can then mark these answers remotely, promoting efficiency and transparency.

DigiProctor’s AI proctored exams platform ensures that “exams keep going” remotely, even after situations normalize. It comprehensively addresses all critical needs of institutions, including:

  • Easy question paper creation and scheduling
  • Support for multiple test formats (objective and subjective)
  • Laptop and mobile compatibility for students
  • Uploading handwritten diagrams, equations, and answers
  • Robust handling of disconnections during exams
  • Advanced impersonation and cheating prevention
  • Seamless subjective evaluation tools
  • Detailed performance analytics for classes and individuals

With AI proctored exams, students no longer need to travel to test centres, saving travel costs and time. Institutions benefit from reduced paper and infrastructure expenses.

Exams can continue securely and seamlessly while maintaining the integrity of the examination process.

The DigiProctor team understands the challenges institutions face and has developed innovative solutions for AI proctored exams, giving students a near on- site exam experience from the comfort of their homes.
