Submit Scan comes from Among Us, the social deduction game released by InnerSloth in 2018, where crewmates complete tasks on a spaceship while trying to identify impostors. In MedBay, the Submit Scan task asks a player to stand on a scanner platform while it checks their body, and because the animation is visible to other players, it became a trusted way to prove a crewmate was innocent. Clips of the scanner, its calm tone and its use as proof spread through gameplay videos and memes, keeping it familiar to players who recognise the sound instantly.
About this sound
The Among Us scanner sound from the Submit Scan task in MedBay, with a rising hum and confirmation beeps. Creators use it for scanning jokes and meme edits.
This is the calm, clinical scanner tone heard when an Among Us crewmate steps onto the MedBay scanner to complete the Submit Scan task. It opens with a low, steady electronic hum that slowly rises in pitch, followed by a series of soft, rhythmic beeps as the green scanning line passes over the character, ending in a clean confirmation chime that signals the task is complete. Unlike the game's tense emergency sounds, this one feels methodical and reassuring, which is why it instantly reads as a medical check, a security scan or a quiet moment of proof in a video.
