Video of it working:

I'm more interested to know how they got caught. It sounds like they weren't confident enough to keep their cool.

Wild. Yeah, he was probably squirming more that normal, or the teacher heard the AI voice.

I wonder if the camera needed to be triggered to take the photo. So the student would be leaning over the exam unnaturally, and pressing a button somewhere to capture the photo.

Pretty clever contraption though.

Is there a link to the video that doesn't give the daily mail a click?
