Before your exam begins, V8 Proctoring asks you to complete a 360° room scan using your camera. This step helps confirm that your exam environment is secure, distraction-free, and compliant with exam rules. Without completing the room scan, the system can’t verify your surroundings, which may prevent you from starting or continuing the exam.Documentation Index

✅ Why to perform a 360° room scan
| What we check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Presence of other people | Ensures no one else is assisting you during the exam |
| Unauthorized items (notes, books, devices) | Confirms no external help or reference material is available |
| Extra screens or electronic devices | Prevents unfair advantages or policy violations |
| Overall room visibility | Confirms the full exam area is visible and monitored |
| Distraction-free setup | Reduces interruptions and unnecessary alerts during the exam |
