There are three important elements that a partner will need to address before triggering the MultiScan SDK.

## User Input

The FaceScan required the following biometric inputs from your users to help produce the scan results.

## Scan Guide

In the Demo App, we show a scan guide to users before they take a FaceScan. It explains important information that will assist in getting accurate, repeatable, and error-free results.

The guide contains:

- Lighting requirements like having their face well lit without direct sunlight.&#x20;
- Facial cover requirements like removing eyewear, face coverings, and headwear.
- Device placement requirements like holding their phone steady for 30 seconds, either by propping it up against a solid object or resting their arms on a firm surface.

See [Supporting Your Users During a FaceScan](docId\:bt60vjt6MlLjkkyycymV_) on how to educate users on how to take a scan.

## Internet Connection

As the processing of measurements is done in the cloud, the user will need to have an active internet connection to generate the results.
