Patent number: 11790798Abstract: Certain embodiments may be directed to a system and method for proctoring an exam, and more particularly, for online automated exam proctoring. A method may include checking a test-taker's computing device for compatibility, and for content that provide unauthorized aid to the test-taker during a testing session. The method may also include taking a photo of the test-taker, recording the test-taker by performing a room pan while analyzing the surrounds of the test-taker for unauthorized objects, and validating the identity of the test-taker by way of at least one of presenting challenge questions, obtaining voice biometrics, or obtaining keystroke biometrics. The method may further include recording the test-taker's audio or video and desktop feed, determining if the test-taker is exhibiting questionable behavior, and suspending the testing session if it is determined that the test-taker is exhibiting questionable behavior.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2022Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: PROCTORU, INC.Inventors: Matthew Jaeh, Jarrod Morgan, Andrew Millin

Patent number: 10083619Abstract: A system for enabling real time live proctoring of an exam across a distributed network includes a first remote computer. The first remote computer is capable of real time audio visual capture and display of an image of a user of the first remote computer. A second remote computer is capable of real time audio visual capture and display of an image of the user of the second remote computer. A server is in communication with the first remote computer and the second remote computer, and provides an interactive web based scheduling portal accessible from the first remote computer and the second remote computer. A database is associated with the server for storing data regarding the rules for proctoring of an exam including the rate at which an exam may be proctored at a given date and time.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2017Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: PROCTORU, INC.Inventors: Jarrod Morgan, Andrew Millin
