Body cameras, facial recognition, analytics: Govt institutions tap AI to fight exam cheating

In an effort to combat exam cheating, educational institutions in India are harnessing technology such as body cameras, facial recognition, and AI-based analytics. The Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS) plans to use facial recognition technology to detect impersonation and monitor student movements during exams. The Karnataka Public Service Commission has equipped invigilators with body cameras, CCTV cameras, and jammers to prevent malpractices. However, concerns about privacy and data security have been raised, highlighting the need for transparency and informed consent. The effectiveness of these technologies in curbing exam cheating remains to be seen.
