Add camera preview in screen proctoring #1048

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The new screen proctoring feature is great for on-site exams. Online exams however require a video feed for authentification and proctoring - screen proctoring is not sufficient in this case.

Describe the solution you'd like Since SEB provides screen proctoring the existing camera feed could be transmitted as part of the students' screen. The SEB application could use a small window in a screens corner (so it does not obstruct content). Upon clicking the webcam preview could expand (for clarification of incidents or id verification).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Thanks for your feature request. That is something we may be able to have a look at mid- to long-term, given that it is technically and organizationally possible (we have very limited development capacities).

@a-kempka the fastest solution would indeed be to add a camera preview to your own web assessment solution. Should be pretty easy with the Javascript API getUserMedia() or similar. Just make sure to enable the SEB setting to allow camera access (browserMediaCaptureCamera = true).
