Hi Madhan,

What are the camera requirements?

Note: You will not be allowed to use an internal camera unless permitted by your Test Sponsor. If you are unsure which camera is allowed, please contact your Test Sponsor.

A camera with a heavy base and flexible neck allows for easier placement. The webcam you choose must meet the following criteria:

• Minimum Video Resolution of 720p with a frame rate of 30 fps
• High Speed USB 2.0 connection - Plug and Play preferred
• Cord length of 6 ft (2 m) or more
• Manual focus ring
• No auto zoom or auto focus allowed. These features must be turned off.
• Built-in microphone

The following are not acceptable as camera alternatives:

• Digital cameras/camcorders
• Smartphones
• GoPros
• Tablets
• Playstation Eye/Camera
• Eye Toy
• Kinect
• Additional laptops/computers.

Please Note:  Driver issues with Internet Explorer and the Logitech C920 and C270 cameras have caused delayed video loading, which may negatively impact your exam experience. It may be beneficial to download the latest webcam drivers prior to launching your exam.

Proper Camera Placement

INTERNAL CAMERA VIEW: The proctor will need to see your full face clearly during your exam with the internal camera. Please be sure to remove any watches or lanyards, and remove any electronic devices like smartphones, tablets, etc, before launching your exam.  

EXTERNAL (USB) CAMERA VIEW:The proctor will need to see all of the following items at the same time, from a side-profile view: The entire keyboard and mouse, a few inches on each side of the keyboard and mouse, tester's entire head and torso, as well as 6-12 inches behind tester's back. Please be sure to remove any watches or lanyards, and remove any electronic devices like smartphones, tablets, etc, before launching your exam.  

Regards,

Vishakha
