A student was caught using “Leqi” devices that solve problems by taking photos of the exam paper.
It was reported that a student identified as Lin was caught cheating on an exam at South China Agricultural University on July 1st. The young man was using AI-equipped glasses on the campus in Guangzhou.
Proctors detected the scheme just 10 minutes into the exam due to an unusual flash coming from the frames. This incident reflects a growing trend among students seeking to secure admission to higher education institutions using cutting-edge technology.
The confiscated equipment is the Leqi model, which integrates four large language models: Deepseek, Tongyi Qianwen, Zhipu, and Doubao. This system allows users to solve problems visually without issuing voice commands.
The design enables the capture of direct images of the exam paper to generate automatic answers. The method involved pressing the frame near the temple to photograph the questions. Although the student tried to hide the light-emitting diode (LED), instructors noticed a green reflection from certain angles and halted the test after the student confessed.
The news spread rapidly on social media, where other users revealed tactics to bypass security checks using cheap, opaque stickers to cover the device’s light. On the digital market, these devices are available for rent starting at 200 yuan, with manuals included on how to configure silent and low-brightness modes to avoid arousing suspicion.
Such instances of cheating are frequently reported in provinces like Hubei and Henan, as well as in Beijing, raising concerns about the lack of preparedness among educators regarding consumer technology.
