Powerful Face Recognition<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The administrator can upload the candidate\u2019 s photo and open the face recognition function and once the candidate logs in to take the exam the system will start scanning the face of the candidate to see if it matches the photo. And if it doesn\u2019t match, the candidate will not be able to take the exam, which will prevent surrogate exam-taker from happening.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2721\" src=\"https:\/\/www.onlineexammaker.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/lbsb.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"806\" height=\"545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onlineexammaker.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/lbsb.png 1088w, https:\/\/onlineexammaker.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/lbsb-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/onlineexammaker.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/lbsb-768x520.png 768w, https:\/\/onlineexammaker.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/lbsb-1024x693.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 806px) 100vw, 806px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>b.
